    I've used one a bit. Had no issues wth it, all shots within 50 metres tho. Then we changed to a holographic and that was even nicer to use. Dont ask me the difference, cos I dont really know. And my girlfriend runs one on a 22 for her kids, apparently easier for them to master than a scope. I tried it one day just for fun, 2 moa dot, and I shot a 10 shot 1.5 moa group at 100. Was pretty impressed with that. Excellent for spook and shoot, you dont even think, just slap that red dot where you want the boolit to go and things just fall over. Unlike a scope, you dont have to have the dot centred in the frame. I'd be happy to use one out to 200 maybe. But would rather a 1.5-6 Kahles for an all round scope, can shoot with that way out to 5 or 600 no problem, and leave on 1.5 for the short stuff.
