I’m getting more serious about sport shooting. Upgrading (well just buying more) better quality guns, finally bought a shooting vest ect.

I normally use a set of quicksilver prescription (very minor I just use them as they are free through health insurance) just wondering if buying a set of proper glasses would help.

I generally shoot in dry scrub. So green-brown sort of stuff shooting orange clays with black base. Is there a color option that I should look at. Also a brand that is worth looking at.

We pretty much see/process color differently so saying what color to get is just guesswork, and what are you wanting to spend? Also there are several brands that work well and are good glasses. If you can ask your shooting buddies if you can look through their's and that way you can try many different color combo's and not cost you anything

People I shoot with don’t use coloured (except work issue sunglasses or work issue yellow) I’m a member of a small club.

Yea I’m prolly going overkill for my skill level but meh if it helps it helps.

Ideally $150ish for a set.

Check into the Ranger Phantom glasses http://lmlenses.com/product/re-ranger-phantom/

I use Decot HyWyds. I bought the frames years ago and get new lenses as my prescription changes. I like a lighter orange color to allow more light in and show the target. More sophisticated shooters use different colors for different conditions. That is the best and most expensive (especially with prescription lenses) way to go. I wear bifocals, but don't bother with bifocal shooting glasses. I can see well enough at reading distances to keep score. My advice is to buy good quality shooting glasses that protect your eyes and to choose a lens color that allows most light in - you don't want sunglasses on an overcast day. Light orange works for me and it might for you as well.

Check out Dtech Shooting Glasses. Great glasses for a great price. Call Gary @ 810-869-6290

If you don’t need prescription lenses, the Ranger Phantom set from Randolph Engineering is the best value, with lifetime warranty on the frame.

Good luck and safe shooting.

Rangers, i feel are the best bang for the buck. Call Dave at Hollywood optical.

I’m in qld Australia hence nothing is really available here.

First thing you need to do is decide how much your eye sight is worth to you and then go from there in deciding which is your better choice.

Good brief article on safety rating, ANSI vs Apel. And some more opinions in the comments section;

If you need glasses for reading and close work but not for distance you can try Beretta shooting glasses which come in a variety of colors. Radians also makes a good cheap shooting glasses. These are about $20. Found the vermillion helped me as I'm somewhat color blind. I did this 3 years then went to DeCot hyWyds when I needed a prescription.

I am just about to list my Lehman Optical glasses for sale. Similar to Decot Hywyds, very nicely made. My set comes with an aluminum case and 4 sets of lenses: Lt. Orange, Dk. Orange, Bronze, & purple. PM me at [email protected] for pics and details. $300. I decided to buy some Pillas so don't need these anymore.

if you can get by with a single set of lenses, a pair of single vision lenses in an inexpensive frame may be your best bet. The polycarbonate lens can be dyed by your optician. Take a peek or two through your shooting buddies' classes to figure out what color will work best for you. These will not be stylish but they will protect your eyes and give some benefit in seeing your targets.

The 5 star rated SSP Eyewear Methow set from www.opticsplanet.com with 6 interchangeable color lens for 129.00 works well for me

Two weeks ago, I stopped up at the Ohio State Trapshoot which is only 20 minutes from me to visit the Morgan Optical booth and took them my Randolph Ranger Sporters. I haven't shot competitively in years and the bifocal prescription was way out out date. I took my new prescription to have new bifocal lenses made. They were very helpful. I should receive my glasses with new lenses in a couple of days. $180 including shipping back to me. This way, I don't have to replace any of the various color clip-on lenses that I have for those glasses. https://www.morganoptical.net

If you don't need prescription lenses, there are some good buys on e-bay right now.
