Lighted sights...who makes the best?
Hey guys, I'm wanting to get a new sight andI'd like to get one that is lighted. I've looked at the Sword and Extreme RT9000 and they both look nice. I'mleaning towards the RT9000 because it is sold at Cabelas. I'm buying through Cabelas because I have some gift certicates to use, so I guess that shuts out the Sword since Cabelas does not sell it. I'm also wanting to get the pin size in .019. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I like my Trophy Ridge a lot. I especially like the easy adjustment feature of the pins. Most sites that I know of you have to use an allen wrench to loosen a screw and adjust the pins, but the trophy ridge is a much simpler method.

I have one of the Sword twilight hunter sights with the .19 pins.
It replaced a Copper John which I really liked. The Sword is 10 times better.
I understand you want to use your Cabela's certificates, but you might want to use them on something else and go ahead and buy the Sword. I highly recommend it. Pins are bright and at .19 they don't cover up allot of target. Also, it is a good value because the light comes with the sight.
Very good sight.
Good luck
