Default Viper sights

Does anyone have any experience with the Viper line of sights? They look pretty good, but if anyone has one how do you like it?

I have the MicroTune and it is a great sight. Very rugged, easily adjustable, and very well made. The only down side is that I've broken a few fibers on it, and the pins aren't micro-adjustable. The pros heavily outweigh the cons though.

Rob and Jeff both have Viper sights as well, and I'm sure they'll weigh in on this.

I have 3 Pro Microtunes and 1 2000 and I don't feel there is a better sight on the market. I know I'm responsible for many on here purchasing a Viper and every single one of them is completely satisfied. There's a reason why I own 4. Back in 06 when I searched bows, prior to buying my first Bowtech, I bought the Viper Pro MT before I owned a bow. I researched all the best sights and the Viper sold me immediately.

Forgot to add:

I was also looking at the sword line of sights but the viper seemed to be the best for the price.

I have one... I don't know what model it is off the top of my head, it is a hunter style with a harmonic dampener. I think it is OK but have had one of the stainless allen head screwshead twist off. The fibers are only so-so for brightness.

I will say the sight is very light and the camo dip on it looks pretty nice.

For $100 I think the one I have is over priced.

No problem, I think that I will go buy one pretty soon and put the single pin range rover on my kids Edge. It looks like a great, easy to adjust site for a good price.

I have 2 and love them both. I started with the 1000 and have since picked up a microtune andI put the 1000 on my sons bow. I am looking a buying a general here in the next couple of months and it will also have a viper on it. 2 of my fibers on the 1000 broke but its a pretty easy fix, they are .029s. I have .010s on the microtune and haven;t had a problem with any of those. Like the rest have said I don't think you can go wrong with any of the viper line.
