I picked up a cheap 1918 Remosington which had been sporterized sometime in the '60s. It has a Lyman brass bead front sight, the longer tapered style rather than the early straight band.
It looks to have been a saddle rifle as well by the brown patina.
The neat part to me is seeing the Remington Armory stamp below the Imperial Russian crest.
Hard to compare accuracy, as this one is really pitted, probably from all the surplus ammo ran through it!
