I believe that those sights are indeed regulated. The Victorian Brits had quite a few ideas that differ greatly from today's views on how iron sights should be used. I believe with those sights you simply place the front bead on top of the leaf and line it up with the platinum line. I would start with a ball a few thousandths of an inch under bore diameter and a cloth patch of about .010", a lubricated felt wad is always a good idea on bore rifles, at 11lbs it should take a pretty stout load of powder, I would think at least 5 drams to regulate though I would start out around 3&1/2 drams and work up. Very nice rifle, and the lack of engraving is not an indicator of low quality. I like it quite a bit, enjoy it in good health and let us know how it shoots!
