I put the Walmart magnet/clip on style on my Ribbed 870 and the damn thing flew off on the 3rd shot.

Both of my Browning sporting clay Citori's come factory with the Hi-Viz Pro Comp sight beads. I use the smallest white inserts in mine, and to be honest with you.....I'm not 100% sure I even use them.

Pointing a shotgun at a fast flying clay bird is a lot like pointing your index finger at a airplane flying over head. That God given hand eye cordination is the difference between hits and misses.... not the color of the front bead.

Have you ever seen a baseball pitcher eyeball up the catchers glove before he lets one go? The human mind can do awesome things when it come to hittings things without aiming.

Use the force, and a Jedi you will become.

I've been shooting clays and birds to long, I don't use a sight. The longest shot I have in my home is 27 feet so that's what I practice at the range. I also have a light on the end of the barrel. Where the light hits, the shot goes.

Thanks for the input guys. I guess I"ll put a light on my shotty first. Then, if I still want a more visible sight I'll go with tritium.

I just have the beaded sight on mine. Is there any night sight I can just pop on top of that? That would be ideal.

I plan to get the Wilson Combat ghost sights next time I have some money burning a hole in my pocket.
