Xs Sight Tall Weaver Backup -Ghost Ring
$102.49
The XS Sights Tall Weaver Backup Ghost Ring is a fast, reliable open sight designed as insurance when your primary optic fails—or when you're hunting in areas where scopes aren't permitted. This backup sight mounts directly to any Weaver-style base in seconds, giving you a field-ready fallback without permanent modifications to your rifle. It's especially popular with muzzleloader hunters who need to switch between optics and open sights, or who hunt no-scope zones where a ghost ring becomes your primary aiming solution.
What makes a ghost ring sight different is its design: instead of a traditional notch, you aim using a large, precise aperture that naturally centers your target while offering a wide field of view for quick target acquisition in the field. The XS Ghost Ring is fully adjustable for both windage and elevation, so you can dial it in to match your rifle and load—no guessing, no permanent compromise. It comes with two interchangeable apertures (.230" and .191" inside diameter) so you can optimize for different lighting conditions, from bright midday to overcast skies or dawn and dusk hunting.
Installation is straightforward: if your rifle already has a Weaver base, this sight attaches in seconds without requiring gunsmithing or permanent modification. That makes it ideal for hunters who run a scope most of the time but want the security of a fast, low-tech backup—or for inline muzzleloader seasons where open sights are the only legal choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this work on my rifle with a Weaver base?
Yes. If your rifle has a Weaver-style base (including those found on most modern hunting rifles and muzzleloaders), the Tall Weaver Backup mounts directly with no gunsmithing required.
Can I use this on an inline muzzleloader in a no-scope hunting area?
Yes. Many hunters use this sight as their primary aiming solution on muzzleloaders, especially in jurisdictions that restrict or prohibit scopes during certain seasons. The ghost ring design and fully adjustable windage and elevation allow you to zero it in like any other precision sight.
What's the difference between the two apertures?
The two interchangeable apertures (.230" and .191" inside diameter) let you adapt to different lighting. The larger aperture works better in low light or overcast conditions for faster sight picture acquisition, while the smaller aperture offers more precision in bright sunlight.
Do I need to remove my scope to use this sight?
Not necessarily. The Tall profile allows the ghost ring to sit above many scopes, giving you a backup sight that's always ready without unmounting your optic—though you'll want to verify clearance on your specific rifle and scope combo.
