Default Peep Sight for Omega?

I'm going to hunt the ML season this year, so no scope. I need some help, and a peep sight will help some.

Does anybody make one that bolts on an Omega?

Sorry, it was easy to find a couple. I should have searched before asking.

One mounts where the stock rear sight mounts, and another looks like it mounts on the scope mounts.

Peep sights should be close to the eye. I would think the one that mounts on the scope mounts would be better, but it's more than twice the price.

Anybody try these sights?

Sabot....That looks like a good one. It mounts in the scope holes right?

Both the WGRS and the one Sabotloader is showing you should mount in the scope holes. Ray

Correct... it has 1/4 min clicks just like a scope and the two small screws in the front lock it in place once you find the sweet spot.

The factory sight comes with a .093 hole in the apeture, and you can order a replacement apeture with a brass ring in the aeture for twilight shooting. Of course there are different sizes of apetures also...

Very good. I'll go with that one.

When using open sights i've been using a small piece of tape on my shooting glasses with a hole in it. So, I know peep sights help a lot.

This is the one I use:

But the one Sabot uses is a better one for adjustments

Whichever you get, I would definately get the "twilight peep appeture" that Sabot mentions. The peep that comes with them is OK for daylight shooting at the range, but you need a larger appeture for twighlight in the field.

Both of those would be mounted in the rear most holes (scope mount holes).

There is also a Tru-glo Globe sight comes with a "ghost ring" that mounts in the forward open sight holes. Out to 100 yards, I don't think there is a lick of difference in the ghost ring and the peep, but for longer, the rearward peep should shine.
