[QUOTE="Buzzdraw, post: 1545493, member: 385"] Different people see colors differently; this also applies to fiber optic colors. Some people prefer green, others orange. Sometimes the background against which you usually shoot will apply to your fiber color choice. I use the bright fiber optic as only a "quick find" for the gun sights on target. At that point I mentally change to a conventional post and notch sight picture. The picture utilizes the black edges of the fiber front. This picture is much more precise than just a "put the colored ball in the middle of the rear sight. The latter may do for quick shots up close. My eyes see green better, so that's my choice. I use fronts from Dawson, EGW and Hi-Viz. In a number of models, Hi-Viz has user changeable tube size/color selections. For competition, I prefer a .100 wide Dawson. I don't use fibers on carry guns; they get quality night sights. [/QUOTE]
