Will,

Which peep sights have you used? I've got the NEGC sights that mount on a Ruger and they give you that "peeping knothole" feeling as do some of the sights that have a large ring with a small hole in the center, but the WWG sights on my Marlin Guide Gun are designed to allow you to look around the peep and accuracy is still adequate.

If you use a sight that allows you to remove the insert and shoot as a "Ghost ring" you should have almost unlimited peripheral vision.
