All,
I recently procured a ruger super blackhawk hunter bisley and am looking into replacing the front sight for something that is a little brighter. So something like a fiber optic. First question is do I need to replace both front and rear sights or just the front. Second question is what sights do you guys recommend and where is a good place to buy them. I hope to get an ultradot on in the next couple years but not sure it is in the budget right now.

My FO is made by Marble's, bought at M-USA. I installed a peep rear blade from ORH. 
Rod, too.
Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.

Dang Rod!! That is nice!! I like that better than the stock sights on my SBHH!
How big of an MOA dot is that?

ORH? Nice setup. I wanted something to try like that on my FA. They were working on one but they have not produced one to date.

How big of an MOA dot is that? I'd say it is all of 8 MOA Paul, but there is no designation from Marble's. The Williams is a bit smaller, but it is red and I wanted green. It is okay for 100 yard big game, but I got it for the bush. I have a heck of a time with standard iron sights and my 50+ YO eyes.
Rod, too.

I like the front sight and have considered getting a FO front myself. The rear Ghost Ring............yeah..........not so much.
