All of my rifles with iron sights have Skinner rear peep sights.
I even have the Warren Outdoors "one hole rear sights" on my Ruger Single Six, Ruger Blackhawk, and Ruger Super Blackhawk.

Use all three as well but I shoot better with a peep sight. Have the ghost ring on shotguns and that works for those.

Well, got the Ranger Point Precision traditional peep sight in a couple months back. But, got to the range today. I like it better than the Cloverleaf. One, the groups seem smaller. Two, the smaller aperture allows for a little more adjustment, which seemed to help me shoot closer to center.

For target work in general,I use a peep sight, but I'm also fond of quality open sights, though those can be hard to find. Open sights supplied by the factory on their rifles can be pretty bleak.
Interestingly, the best factory open sights I've found are on quality air rifles from HW, RWS/Diana and FWB. As with this rear sight on the FWB Sport springer, they are click adjustable for windage and elevation and give you the option of switching to blades of varying notch widths. Those German airgun brands take rear sights, seriously. With these open sights, I do about as well as a peep.
