Which peep sight

[Cgrutt]

So which peep sight should I buy for my new .22LR and why?

Here are some of the options I'm looking at but open to other suggestions.

Williams FP



Pros: Manufactured specifically for my rifle and recommended by manufacturer
Fits receiver dovetail and do not need to mod factory stock

Cons: Bulky

Skinner CZ 452/455



Pros: Sleek, no protruding knobs

Cons: Assuming adjustments require tools

Tech Sights



Pros: Military style (have same style on other guns), comes with new matching front sight and guard

Cons: Front sight may not fit properly without drilling and tapping new hole

BRNO target sights:



Pros: Old world quailty; comes with hooded front sight

Cons: Most expensive, sourcing may be problematic

FS Aperture



Pros: Wildman seal of approval

Cons: Sourcing seems a bit sketchy, LOL; conflicting info whether it fits my gun or not.

So, let's here it!

Figured I'd get this out of the way now so we can talk about some guns, LOL...

Wildman approved. Done and dusted.

Have you ordered from that link before?

diopter with drop and wind-age but small and simple. The issue is you cannot talk about the system w/o talking about the front post and proper alignment parallel to the bore.
There are many designs avaliable so what looks good for me might not look for for you. I prefer fine posts with enclosed (hooded) but I am sure
a small HK 1200 yards single peep diopeter will do fine for most tasks. the larger the radious the better ...
check out KNS designs.. so many to choose from.


Also will need to consider ergonomics as many rifles will need a cheek raiser and adjustable back plate for proper
position and natural aim.

I love the Tech sights on my 795 Marlin, if you're on a budget that would be the way to go (and they offer a kit of different sized apertures).

If' you're looking to go match grade accurate, I'd recommend adjustable iris apertures (front and rear if possible, at least the rear) or at least something that you can install adjustable iris into (http://www.champchoice.com/store/Mai...tions&item=510). Those BRNO's are pretty sweet.

That last BRNO sight looks pretty sweet. Kind of looks like a left hand version though?

Any way you can fit some old Redfield sights on it? No idea of there is an adapter that will work, but you can usually find used Redfields around.

11mm (just shy of 3/8") dovetail on receiver. Have no idea what's available for it.

The one I posted is a real deal BRNO Czech sight. That guy I posted has been selling them on rimfirecentral for awhile now. You should be OK. Bro...Buy once...Cry once!!!

I better go back and take a look. I am pretty sure they have a version that does. My bad let me see what I can find out.

Weird thing is title says cz455 but the guy who is selling them said he didn't have adaptors for cz rifles. That's why I thought it was "sketchy"...

BTW, how are you doing bro? Happy New Year!

[Cgrutt]

Sent the seller an e-mail, will advise.

If you are interested in high quality diopter match sights run to EBay ASAP. There are two sets of the Govt match sights for Kimber 82G for sale. Both were at $250'ish just now when I looked. Search Kimber 82G Sights.
i have the 82G for offhand practice and the sights are great and priced right!

[Cgrutt]

$250ish is too rich for my blood these days...
