I've been shooting steel challenge matches with my 22 pistol and I want to try a fiber optic front sight on it. What diameter are shooters running, and what sight picture do you use? No one makes a sight for the gun so it'll be a custom proposition. I can make a base and install one of these on top of it:

It's 1/2" long and has a .100" fiber rod. My stock front sight is .125" wide. Or should I look for a .125" wide bead?
And what's your sight picture? Bead centered in the rear sight notch and sighted so the bead covers your POI area? Or do you sight it so the POI is at the top of the bead, the same as iron sights?
