Axtell offers a traditional style tang sight with windage.
If your spaghetti hiwall has the same hole spacing as the originals.

Joe_S, 

I don't know whether it would fulfill all of your needs, but Lyman used to make a windage staff for their standard tang sight (part # 47, IIRC) and it is being made new and sold through Parts Unknown at a very reasonable price.  It looks a lot like the Pope tang sight and works about as well, but does not have the vernier feature for elevation and has somewhat less range of adjustment than the ones you are discussing.  I have used an original on my original high-wall .45-70 for some casual BPCS with satisfactory (for me) results.  JMHO, YMMV.

Happy New Year!

Joe if the cleaning rod is close you can make up a flexable rod out of Delrin.  I use them for range rods were a simple wipe is all thats needed.  My Schuetzen's comb is too high to clear a straight rod.  At home I take the barrel off and clean it propery with a steel rod.

On my lower comb CPA a steel rod will clear but it's very close to the sight so use a Delrin for range wiping work too.

Delrin in various sizes is avalble from plastic suppliers. It drills and taps for 8/32 pretty good. Never had a jag pull out.

In that case, the guy who succeeded Cape Outfitters was, at last report, selling a pretty fair tang sight for original Winchesters that looked an awful lot like the one pictured above.  Anybody remember the name of that outfitter?

Hello Mr Johnny b Good!
That is pretty much what I am looking for, and as a matter of fact, that is probably what I will end up with. I have a nice MVA tang sight with windage and Hadley eyecup for my Sharps. I ordered a Winchester base for my Uberti, and when I recently tried to install it I discovered that the screws that came with it were too large, the sight staff was a very tight fit as was the thumbscrew.  Furthermore, the angle of the staff was not correct for the Highwall. Idecided to get another sight rather than try to get this one to fit.  However, today between football games I took another look at that base and with a little bit of carefoll polishing, I got the staff to fit, as well as the thumbscrew and discovered that the angle of the staff is adjustable , although I have not adjusted it yet I assume that wil not be a problem.  I happened to have a set of screws that will work, so at this point I believe that is the route I am going to go.  I considered a Winchester style tang sight but  I prefer the windage adjustment on the tang rather than front sight so this should work. Thanks to everyone  for all your help and suggestions! Joe S
