7. Marble Arms Bullseye .22 Rifle Rear Sights 
Young or inexperienced shooters can have a hard time using V-style rear sights.

The Marble Arms Bullseye sight is a modified aperture sight with a ring inside a ring. When the rear sight is misaligned the front sight drifts out of the center ring, signaling the shooter to cheek the stock and make correction. Like other peep sights, the Bullseye naturally centers the front bead in the aperture for easy, repeatable shot placement. Constructed of blued steel with a polished finish, the sights are designed to fit a nominal 3/8" (9.5mm) dovetail (some minor fitting may be required). Fixed, Short Adjustable and Long Adjustable configurations are available to fit a wide variety of .22 rifles. These sights are currently available through the Brownells website for $16.99.
