Hi Folks, I am looking to buy a Soule sight for my Shiloh Sharps and was wondering what is the absolute best. Thanks, George

I don't know which one is really the best.

I advise that you purchase one w/ the most am't of wind adjustment.

I would also advise spending a few more $$ a purchase a long-range sight. You can always shoot shorter ranges w/ a long range sight, but w/ a mid-range sight, you might run out of elevation on the staff the much longer ranges....

CAVEAT: keep one thing in mind--if you are a left-handed shooter, not all sights have the vernier scale on the left side of the staff.

George, Ron Heilman makes fine front and rear sights for BPCR rifles and will engrave elevation markings on what ever side of the staff you specify. His front sight has the bubble level inside with a "skylight" for better more even illumination. Hoke, MVA, Kelly, and Baldwin are some of the better known quality sights available. Rbump

Though it isn't a soule check out the Hoke sight. I can't say enough good about these people and there product!!!!!!!
I think it is a much more attrqactive sight than the soule style and looks more period correct to the Buffalo hunting period, and offers PLENTY of windage adjustment.
