k1llapanda Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 what does everyone use on the dots for their open shotguns. i am currently have a DPP triangle dot on my tooth and nail match 1919, this one seemed like a solid bet as far as what will work best, but how will they hold up in match ( dump barrels, slugs, etc) it came with the jpoint circle dot, but i hated it. was thinking of running a holosun 510c. any other popular options or reason to not use one mentioned above?

I love the 510s in general, I think we have 6 of em at this point! Overall the VR has been great.

It does not use battery nor electronics so its only a fiber optic sight w/c project the light to the glass window. In my limited experience in Open, the ring reticle is quite fast to acquire targets for bird and buck shots. For slugs i use the center dot for precise aim.

In a major IPSC match last year, an IROA in eqpt check ruled it to be good in Open and Standards divs. I shoot open by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AverageJoeShooting Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 I amend my previous statement that the venom is the best dot The holosun 510c is With open shotgun you want a larger window which the holosun provides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoyGlock Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 I believe the most important factor is reliability w/ the SG big kick. CMore Sliderides are the most reliable in my open major pistols but didnt last long on my 1301 in my first and only try. Given time and chance I might try another one. Also Ive seen micro dots give up on some in the middle of stage runs. So for now Im in PSX1000/2000. No circuits and batteries to worry about.

mike4045 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I put a cheap primary arms micro on mine. So far so good I have a sig 5 on the other, but only about a 100 rds thru it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Anderson Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I’ve been running the Deltapoint triangle on a Saiga for...not really sure, but several years. Guessing 10ish. Works great. For my gun the top of the triangle zeroed at 50 worked out to the bottom being almost perfect at 100. I’m playing around with the Holosun now but I’m less impressed. I’m sure it’s something I’m doing wrong but the QD mount loosens up every couple hundred rounds. There will be some loctite in its future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
