    I have used black golds for years but I have switched recently to spot hog very nice sights for sure, super solid and well built. I have a Real deal but they do make some with less cost as well. Lifetime warranty on everything except fiber optic. The wrapped should last a long time though.

    What do you plan on hunting and what would your comfortable shot distance be? Deciding pin diameter (0.010, 0.019, 0.029) and amount of pins is a good start, then you can chase after brands that have those models within your price range. I shoot 0.010 5 pin sight so I have a pin from 20-60 yards. Some companies have models that offer different pin diameters for the distance. Next I look at warrantee and price. The brands posted above are all reputable companies. I like Axcel sights because they have micro adjust and are very durable, though may be a little out of the $100 price range. Open up a catalog or go online and search away.
    Good Luck deciding, so many of them out there!

    Check out Toxonics sights. They've been around a long time. They offer micro adjustable sights starting in the $60 range that lock down once adjusted, simpler are available for less $$ as well, and they offer everything up to high end target sights. Just my two cents worth. I like simple durability that's easy to adjust and lock into place.
