My strategy is pretty much keeping my shots under 100 yards (no problem there - unless I'm on a range, 100 yards puts a lot of trees in my line of fire), replacing the rear sight with something a little more robust and easy to use, and maybe springing for an Accu-Strut down the road.
I think there are cheaper alternatives to the accustrut on eBay if you look. Same exact things from what I can see.. Even if you can't get it tuned to your barrel, it will still look cool as well as act like a heat-sink.
