    I shoot an extreme 911 raptor 4 pin sight. The housing measures 1 5/8". My peep is a good bit oversized and i have no idea what size peep it is. I would rather the peep line up with the housing of my sight at full draw. Curious if anybody knows what size peep i need?

    You probably have a 1/4 inch peep. Try going to a 3/16 inch

    Appreciate it. Never put much stock into brand name peeps. Any suggestion?

    g5 meta. imo bigger peeps are better. you can see whats going on more than what you can with a small peep. just practice with the peep lined up with the top or bottom of the sight housing.

    I recently dropped down to a 3/16... One thing I didn't take into consideration was the lack of sight through the peep in low light conditions, just a thought for you. I second the larger peep.
