Scattergun Ghost Rings

Just a quick question does anyone run these? Just picked up a set and when I went to test them the front has a nice big illuminated tridium but the rears are next to no illumination

I like them for shooting poppers and plates but found them a little harder to see a flying clay with. I'm bad for shooting high with a shotty and do find they helped with that.

I likem. I might put a set on my 870.

Are the rears less bright then the fronts ?

I bought a Hatsan recently that has fibre optic sights. One up front and then 2 on each side of the ghost ring.......I find the rear dots to be distracting and they take away from the simple sight picture of a ghost ring! I like the nice bright dot up front but I will be blacking out the rear dots as they are a nuisance on a long gun with ghost rings.
For some reason I don't mind 3 dots on handguns though....I think it's because of the difference in eye relief.
I bet even shooting in the dark that one vial on the front post is all you will need.

I've been using them for years. I love them.

I have two sets of them. One has rear tritium, one does not. I prefer the one without rear trits. The reason the rear tubes are not as bright is that a smaller trit vial is needed to fit in there because there isn't as much metal to imbed a longer tube. That said, the rear doesn't need them anyways so don't worry about it.
