Hi folks, I have been hunting deer for years with an 870 smoothbore with rifle sights and was wondering if anyone here has used "ghost ring" or peep sights for shooting slugs. I am mainly curious about whether peeps help get a quicker, more defined sight picture. Where I usually hunt the deer are up and moving quickly. I have noticed that peep sights on my Garand allow for fast sight alignment, but I can't use that for deer in Ohio. Thanks for any info. This is a great board you have here!
