RE: What do you prefer?
hoyt3, you are correct. The only plastic is the cover for the fiber optics. I think it's a decent sight for the money. I have heard from a couple guys that the fibers rattle around a touch inside the shroud, but I haven't shot it so can't comment. I'd say put one on at a shop and find out for yourself.
I've been around a couple decades and seen many changes, some not always so good, but most work. Unless you hunt some western states I think it's best to have as few pins on a hunting sight as you can get away with. Emphasis on HUNTING. If most of your shots will be within 30 yards then I like a single pin adjustable sight. Less pins means less possible mistake. You don't have to adjust it during hunting conditions. Just sight it and set it for 25 yards or so and leave it alone. It'll take care of anything within 30 yards with a mid body hold. No guessing yardage or anything. No picking the wrong pin. All you need is a bow that is shooting about 260fps or more. For the rare occurance where you may have a longer shot you would probably have ample time to take a glance and move it, but those would be rare. And it's such a nice clean sight picture with no extra pins blocking the animal.
I like all-metal myself (plastic is junk) so my favorite is the HHA OL-5000. For ruggedness, brightness, solidity, and warranty it's at or near the top of the heap.
