Default iron sighted rifles

Anybody on this board shoot slings 'n' irons on centerfire match rifles?

I used to be in service rifle matches, but rules were only service rifles with iron sights and military slings(Sometimes none). Nothing to fancy, but usually shot M14.
But it has been some time....

Cat, the closest I come to that is shooting with either factory iron sights or peep sights on my leverguns / milsurp bolt actions.

Nuthin' wrong with shooting service rifles!
We actually have a .303 British Match at our rifle rodeo, and there are a number of No.4's in it, as well as the odd Garand and Nagant.
The No.4's actually rule the range at our rifle rodeo, this is our most popular event !!
