bishop414 Posted December 13, 2017 Author Share Posted December 13, 2017 Have a Spitfire and hate the reticle. Way too busy for me. If the rings were smaller, might be doable, but as is no thanks. Looking to replace my Eotech. Was hopping the redesigned Burris 1x would be worth talking about, but might as well wait for 12" of snow in Phoenix by the time they release, if ever.

Dan Sierpina Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 That was supposed to be out a year ago, wasn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHitchcock Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I use a AMG UH-1 for PCC. I love it. Fantastic optic IMO. Would work very well for 3 gun IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crosselot Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 I really like the trijicon MRO that I have on my PCC. Lightweight and there are always deals on them with different mounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrispies Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 I’m curious to see one in oerson. However, the MSRP seems pretty steep. Anybody know what the street price is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathanb Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 499ish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer a 6moa-ish plain dot myself, but don’t absolutely hate a circle dot reticle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathanb Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 With the prices on the mros falling into the 360 Range I wont be looking at one of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrispies Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 (edited) I think with EOTech being a nonstarter nowadays for a lot of individuals and agencies there is a spot in the marketplace for this optic. The problem is that number one it’s expensive and number two it weighs in at 11.8 ounces. That weight doesn’t exactly fit into this world of mini red dots which Tip the scales at hardly anything and are extremely robust. I just hope that vortex created an optic that is more than just “not an EOTech.” Edited December 17, 2017 by jkrispies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ring is around 6 MOA thickness, then a second ring at 3 MOA thickness or so. Hard to focus on the 1 MOA dot when shooting at range in my opinion. 400-500 yd shots with anything bigger than 2 MOA is tough, again, my opinion. Again, not looking for a PCC dot, but a 3 gun dot. I really like my Eotech, but have found the zero shifting due to temperature extremes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
