You need to make sure it jives with your sight pin ring. 3/16 is fine.....if it matches up with your sight pin ring. I use a 1/4".....to allow more light in.
Have your shop put in a couple....til you have the right one. Think about low light capabilities.

RE: good peep size
Huntinma I believe what Nissan is saying is he can see hiw whole sight housing as well as all the pins, not sure?? But I believe so!
If you want a pin just for hunting, you have to be very careful with small peeps because in low light conditions, I have always found it harder to see through! I used to always drill mine out when they aggravated me enough! The only thing I can say is when I shot a smaller peep with smaller pins I shot better at dots and 3d and such, but for hunting I would never think of getting anything small! The bigger the better in my eyes!(Preferred same size as site housing)
Good Luck any of your local archery shops should have all different size peeps to fit your need though!!

RE: good peep size
I agree with the 1/4 inch. I shot my first 3-D tourn. last weekend, and had a real hard time with a smaller peep because I couldn't tell where on the target I was aiming. As soon as it was over, I had a 1/4 peep put in so I could see my whole sight ring.
