Who's shooting this sight? I'm looking at getting one and cant decide on size of pin or size of housing. Used mainly to hunt and target shoot, no tournaments yet. Looking at .010 and 2 inch housing. Pros/Cons? Any input appreciated.

I use the 2" housing for 2 reasons. I like a large sight picture for hunting and I shoot a big peep and the 2" housing lines up well with my peep.
I believe mine is the .019 pin and I personally would not go larger.

I prefer the smaller housing and a .019 pin.

I have it and went with the .010 & it was definitely the right choice, also went with the smaller housing. I should have done it sooner!

Does the smaller housing affect anything other than sight picture? Is there that big of a difference in 3/8 of a inch? I haven't got to see them side by side. Just wondering if any others checked this before buying. Thanks for all feedback.

It is really dependent on your peep size and draw length. I shoot 1/4" peep and the 2" housing andWith my 28" DL at full draw the peep aligns and circles the housing just perfectly. I also had the 15/8" and it was too small for my set up and would leave alot of play when alining the peep and housing.

I shoot a 3/16" peep and the small housing lines up perfect and I feel like I have a big sight window with this combo

The pro of having the wheel over the slider is you are able to make adjustments to re-zero your yardage, like after a string change or moving your peep. With the slider you have to change your sight tape out.

I've been looking at these sights as well. I know I want the smaller housing and the version with the rheostat. Still trying to decide on the pin size. Are the .010 bright enough in very low light or do they get hard to see? And do you guys have the slider or wheel version? Mine is going on a hunting rig. I've read the wheel is a bit easier to adjust but it is also significantly more expensive than the slider. Pros and cons?
Thanks I don't have this sight but I do have one with .19 pins and I can tell you that I wish I would have gotten the .10's. At 20 yds or less the .19's are ok but anything approaching 30 and they cover too much of the bullseye IMO.
