Thanks to all that commented. I purchased a Marbles tang sight for the Uberti. My rifle came with a pair of additional screws for mounting the tang sight. It also was drilled & taped for Lyman peep sight. When I started to install the sight everything looked simple. After mounting with the Uberti supplied screws the bottom of the bolt would stop at the cocked hammer position. It was being held up by the forward tang screw. Basically the screw head was too thick. I ordered the screw set but they are not the right screws for an '86. I had a gunsmith grind down the front screw and make a new screwdriver slot. Good, except now the back of the bolt hits the upright. I then took it off and mounted the base backward, and swapped the eyepiece to the other side. So far it functions but I have not had a chance to fire the rifle yet. I have been in touch with Marbles and will sent them one of the original Uberti screws and seek their thoughts. If this work the windage adjustment will just be on the opposite side of the rifle. Wish me luck, somehow these simple projects usually provide some unforeseen drama. C-U, C. W.

Has anybody installed a tang sight on a 1886 Uberti .45-70? Any issues? Thanks in advance, C.W.

BTW I am a plus one for Fast Eddie. C.W.

Roland, add my thanks for the pictures. Glad the ya'll had a good time. Peace be with you brother. C.W.

Thanks Mr. R, I double checked and the RCBS box only says 10mm Auto. I guess that they should also do .40 S&W. I modified the Dillon set to reflect that. The D set does say & .40 S&W. Thanks for looking. These need a new home I have not loaded .223 or 10mm in 14 years and only a little 9mm. C-U, C.W.

Thank,s Rex C.W.
