.10 or .19 pins for trophy ridge react pro 5?

does .19 mess up the sight window? is .10 too small? what do you guys suggest?

 

Remember that the size of the fiber dictates light transmission too. Because of that if I use .10 pins they are only for longer range pins. If had choice between the two personally I would go with .19 so they don't go dark as fast. You could had a light I guess but I don't like to do that.

 

A .010 is to small for my old eyes. I actually went to a .026 top pin now. It gathers/transmits more light and I can see it easier than the .019. Also at 20-25 yards it isn't too big that it covers your target.

 

I personally like the .19 because the .10 go dark pretty fast.

 

I have .19 and it seems pretty good to about 40 yards. After that it is too big, getting a .10 next.

 

.019 all the way here.

 

If it helps your decision making, the React Pro will have a sight light on it to light up the pins in low light conditions. Won't illuminate the animal, just the sight pins. I have a used it before in blinds and in a barn and it works great. The brightness will also be adjustable and the lowest setting is more than enough light added to see them. I have the .019 and I've only had to use the light those two times I mentioned. It gathers light like crazy and often times the pins glow bright before there is enough shooting light in the morning.

 

I had the .010 pins and they were fine. Could not get used to 5 pins and went back to single pin

 

I shoot a HHA 5510 Tournament Edition. I think the .019 pins cover to much of the target. I shoot way tighter groups with .010 pin.

 

I have the Pro with .019 pins, but I have also had a react one and a React One Pro with .010 pin and with Trophy ridge you get really bright pins either way. They also have a light on it which to me really is only helpful for a ground blind. The pins are really that bright without the light. I find that the .019 pins are fine since with the react 5 pro you are really only shooting 20-60 yards and they don't crowd each other out too much. The ideal to me would be .019 20,30,40yards and .010 50 and 60 yards. With that said I think you'd be just fine with .010 as well. I would probably get whichever one you found at the best price and be happy with either.

Another option which is what I went with on my current set up is a MBG ascent sight 3-5 pin and you can customize pin size and color just how you like it. I have .019 at 20,30 yard pins and a .010 40 yard pin that also acts as my adjustable floater pin out to further distances.
