Thread: Red dots pros and cons

Pros:
Fast, light, parralax free.

Cons:
Lack of precision, no magnification, can give trouble with even mild astigmatism. Light transmission is an issue on cheaper ones

I liked it on my ar and think they make sense in a wee bush cannon but personally I think a small fixed 2.5 or a 1-4 is more versatile. I run a 1.75 - 6 on my bush gun now and find that perfect. The mag really helps determine which piece of the deer you are looking at.

Would own one on a bail gun or whatever again for sure
