+1 on the Heinie Straight-8s

I don't like 3-dot patterns, finding them too busy. The Heinies are very quick and intuitive since you just stack one dot on top of the other, and put the resulting snowman on your target. I find that for fast and up close, it doesn't really matter what you use. But as you get out past 15yds or so, I get better accuracy in a hurry by stacking 2 dots on each other than trying to centre one dot between 2 other ones. Unlike the pic in the previous post, I have my handloads tailored so that there is no gap between the 2 dots when I line up the sights . YMMV.
