I like either 1/4" or 3/16". Have you seen the G5 Meta Peep? It's magnesium and is the lightest one there is.

I use a 3/16" G5 Meta Peep. Doesn't make it the best, but I like it a lot.

For hunting, I used the G5 meta peep this year. I used the 1/4" diameter and then used the sight extension bar to bring the site in to fill the peep up. I didn't see any benefit to this peep, but it was the newest one out there and cheaper than the specialty super peeps I use on my target rigs.

I installed the G5 on tkycaller's bow and I was really impressed with it. If I were to set up a new bow I believe this is the peep I'd try and if I didn't need my current peep for my clearifing lens when I shoot my Boss scope, I'd add it to m Allegiance. Impressive.

Tell you what for hunting I found one made from Predaorst view...... a small PA compnay www.predatorsviewpeepsights.com this sight worked great from the blind in WYoming (ecspecially in the blind) and in the treestand in PA. I really like this peep. It allows light and you do not compromise accuracy......check it out.

Jim Fletchers TRu Peep. I have the hunter and drilled it out a little smaller than 1/4 inch. Id like to try the 1/4 inch soon , mayge try the G5 Works good enough to put meat in my freezer though.

Another vote for the G5. I got the 1/4 " and I really like it. I would definitetly give this one a try before the others!
