The XS Sights Ghost Ring Set is built for Henry Big Boy and Big Boy X carbines chambered in .44 Magnum that wear a screw-on front sight on a round barrel. It swaps out the factory irons for a rugged, steel peep-style setup that a lot of lever gun folks swear by. The whole thing is precision CNC machined in Fort Worth, Texas, so it holds up to years of knocking around in the truck, the timber, and the deer blind without walking out of zero.
The magic here is the ghost ring itself. Because your eye naturally centers the front post inside that big rear aperture, target acquisition happens fast and your sight picture stays open and uncluttered. It's a proven system that gives up nothing in precision to a traditional blade and V, and the large field of view is a real advantage when a buck steps out and you don't have time to fuss. The rear is fully adjustable for windage and elevation, and it ships with two apertures, a .230 inch and a .191 inch inside diameter, so you can tune the sight picture to the light you're shooting in and how much precision you're after.
Up front you get the XS White Stripe, which replaces the existing blade and ramp. The white-on-black post pops against dark timber and dark-hided game, while the blued steel edges give you contrast against lighter deer or a paper target on the range. It's the kind of front sight that stays visible at dawn, dusk, and everywhere in between.
One thing worth knowing before you order: this ghost ring set is designed to run on the XS Lever Rail and won't zero on its own or on another rail system. Installation involves removing the factory rear sight, and the screws torque to a light 20 inch-pounds, so easy does it. If you're not comfortable with the front sight fitting, a gunsmith can knock it out quickly. Make sure your Henry has the screw-on front sight on a round barrel and not a front blade dovetailed straight into the barrel.
It's made for Henry Big Boy and Big Boy X carbines in .44 Magnum that have a front sight screwed onto a round barrel. It will not work on models where the front sight blade is dovetailed directly into the barrel. Check your front sight setup before ordering so you get the right version.
Yes. This ghost ring set is designed to run exclusively on the XS Lever Rail for Henry and won't zero on its own or on another rail. The rear sight moves from the barrel to the receiver, which is why the rail is required for the system to work as intended.
The set ships with a larger .230 inch and a smaller .191 inch inside diameter aperture. The bigger one gathers more light and speeds up target acquisition in low light, while the smaller one tightens the sight picture for a bit more precision. You can swap between them to match your conditions.
The rear is a bolt-on once you have the Lever Rail mounted, and installation involves removing the factory rear sight. Screws torque to a light 20 inch-pounds, so don't overdo it. Fitting the front sight can take a little filing, so if you're not comfortable with that, a gunsmith can handle it fast.
