This setup works really well. It is fast and the Trijicon Accupoint is affordable at around $600. I was able to easily hit a 2" square at 100 meters from a variety of positions.
Running mine the same way now, but still looking at other optic options.

Funny but the rear sight seems to be one of the biggest attractions to the GSR, or Scout rifles in general. Just like with our AR's, a lot of us want that backup aperture sight on our hunting/truck rifles, even if we'll likely never need them. Such a simple thing. Someone (XS, EGW?) should make receiver rails for the other popular bolt rifles that incorporate a similar sight as the XS GSR rail. Obviously, there's plenty of room for the sight and two rings without going forward of the receiver.
