The other cure for this, if the new rear sight does not fully solve the problem, is to install a taller front sight. This will get you back some usable adjustment on the rear sight. Other thing I found helped the Savage sights a lot is a Williams WGRS series peep sight that mounts directly to the scope rails. Much easier to use than the notch sight. I have one on a Savage 22/20 gauge and it works very well.

I have SPARC red dots on a Savage 24 22/410 and a Baikal 22/20 gauge, and while they work well, it does make the gun a little less sleek and handy. I have them on there as my brother likes to use the guns for grouse on cutlines and has relatively poor eyesight. If your eyes are good enough to shoot well with the open sights I like that solution much better.

Good to hear Savage continues to maitain their great custoemr service.
