Marbles Bullseye Sights Question

Post by Macd »

Anyone ever used this sight? I am looking at it as a possible replacement for the open sights on a .22RF single shot

I haven't used that particular sight, but have used rear peeps with globe front sights on target rifles.

Do you plan on putting a front globe on?

I have a several rifles with adjustable diopter or fixed aperture sights. All the diopter ones have globes with inserts. In this case I am looking for an aperture sight that fits (or can be fitted) into the rear sight dovetail which is forward of the receiver. I will be keeping the front blade sight and want the rear sight to roughly have the same range of vertical adjustment. The Marble Bullseye is the only one I have been able to find that may work in this application.

For the price, it's worth a shot. I did see this dovetail peep. Not sure of the range of vertical adjustment on it. It's pretty low profile, albeit a bit pricier

Skinner Dovetail Peep





Let us know how it works out

Have a couple. Yet to try them. Nearly all my levers have Skinner peeps on them. Thinking this one should work for the couple applications I got it for. Once thing I would recommend is a nice thick front post sight - like Skinner offers. It makes a huge difference, imo.

I have a Bullseye on my 92 and i like it, its very fast amd easy to use but i cant speak to its accuracy from afar as down here in Miami its difficult to shoot at any distance over 25yds

The Skinner sight comes in the Rossi DT size (.390). Check out link in previous post.

Unfortunate for me I couldn't see if Skinner does international orders.
