Default Best 4-5 pin site under $100

I just spent an hour trying to change a broken fiber on my Tru Glo true site extreme. Ended up very frustrated and now have a break in a different pin.

Time for a new site that won't break the bank. Needs to be durable and the fibers need to be much more replaceable that the Tru glo.I shoot lefty and like the larger pin guard that Icover with the peep.Lights are OK but my experience with them is that theymake the pinstoo bright. If the fibers bight enough maybe the light is not needed.

Was thinking of the Extreme RT900 (would have to flip it around as it doesn't come in lefty), a Sword Twilight hunter, and a Copper John Dead nuts 2.

Recommendations please.

I have used the Copper John Dead Nuts for last couple of years and highly recommend them.

I just deleated my first response soo I'll make this short. Copper John Dead Nuts 5 pin is great. Very strong and affordable. I myself think the new dead nuts 2 looks sick , more fiber and a smaller site gaurd . I took1 pin of for a replacement for the future . These sites really can take a licking . good luck

I agree with above the CJ line is tough to beat and fits in any price range!

The sword line up of sights is simply amazing. Very well constructed, bright pins....I believe the Twilight Hunter even comes w/ a 3 phase light, just in case. I would get the .019's, but that's just me. I recently bought an Apex Micro 3rd Plane w/ .010's.....VERY impressed.

For hunting I like the line Impact has. For target, I just got the new Copper John Dead Nuts 2 Comp. It is a very nice sight, but it runs between $130 and $150.
