I like several but lean toward the Copper John sights.

I use and like the Copper John Dead Nuts, with .019 pins. For the price I really like it, it's solid and good quality. But there are others I like as much just not in the same price range.

As you know there are several good one's but somestand out more than others. I ran a poll a week ago and copper john led the way with spot hogg. but some others did well too. If you stick with one of these though you can't go wrong. Better watch going with your friendit could get you into a buying frenzy.

I have tried a few different sights from expensive target sights to adjustable one pin sights and various others in between. I always end up going back to my original 30 dollar Archers choice fiber optic multiple pin sight. I sometimes add a fourth pin for the extra yardage when practicing though.

They are inexpensive, stupid simple, rugged and work. I really can't ask for much more than that.

I honestly can't justify spending 100+ dollars (or close to that even) on a multiple pin hunting sight. I guess if you have it to spend though they are nice. They look pretty and are a bit easier to adjust. In the end they do the same though.
