Rear sight for prone small bore 50m

Post by GrandRifles »

Hello,

I want to replace my old Walther rear sights with new ones, specifically for prone shooting at 50m smallbore. Could you recommend the best options? I noticed that the Centra Spy sights are quite popular in the World Cup. However, I couldn't find any details regarding the difference between the short and long versions. Any advice?

Yes, the Centra Spy has becone very popular over the past fifteen years. As far as I'm aware the onky difference is that the long Spy has two clamps while the short Spy has one. If you want a really firm fit, or need to slide the sight way back then get the long, otherwise I don't think it would matter.

There is a Spy BR that has even finer clicks.
