Does anyone know anything about them? Saw them in Petersens Bowhunting Magazine. Looks like a well made sight.

The Rocky Mountain company was bout out by the same company that owns Rage and Trufire. The sights seemed cheap and poorly made to me. I got to play with them at the ATA show. They look nice but once you get one in your hands you will see where I'm coming from.

They look like they come out of the same factory as the IQ and Bass Pro BlackOut sights; same knobs, same markings, same heads, similar pin guards. Pretty light weight but I like the features they're offering according to Lancaster.

I got one coming to test out will post review once I get it set-up!

I was really close to buying one, but at the last minute purchased the new Spot Hogg Fast Eddie XL, which should arrive next week some time

Is there another set of holes to move the sight block out?

I have yet to mount mine to a bow since I just got it Friday and had to leave town. I did play around with the adjustments some for a few minutes and I think its a really nice bow sight. Fiber optic pin is as bright as my Axcel, Spot Hogg, and not far behind my Black Gold. The micro adjustment is smoother than my Black Gold Pure 75 sight, but not as fine as the micro clicks on my Axcel or a Spot Hogg. The rapid driver wheel seems pretty smooth just like the Black Gold dial, and can be locked down the same way. My only slight dislike is the clear guard over the fiber optic on top of the sight. I always fear this plastic type cover is fragile and will break or crack from hard hunting, or in extreme temps. Lots of other sights use similar fiber covers though with no issues.. I hope to set it up this week, put it on the Brite Site leveler to set axis, dial it in, and take it to the woods this fall.

I had the exact same problem with mine. It was maxed out. I had to modify mine a little bit. I flipped over the piece where the up and down lock is on the bottom. Works perfectly fine now but for the price I paid for it you shouldn't have to modify it. The problem is the bracket that allows it to slide makes it stick out too far. Hope this helps

Great sight. I have the one pin slider and love it. Very light weight, lock down is solid, very bright pin. I to ran out of left adjustment, just took out two screws and mounted on other side of the bracket, bam good to go. Used to do the same in older spot Hogg's many years ago. Getting a 3 pin slider for my hunting rig next. No better sight being made at the same price right now
