vgdvc Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Hello. Has anyone had experiences or formed opinions about the RTS2 V5 with a 10 moa dot? Wondering how it compares in size, brightness and clarity/crispness to the 8 MOA model of the same generation. Also reliability. Thanks in advance.

Could you describe a little how it's on another level? 10 moa not too big for precision when needed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AverageJoeShooting Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 I dont use the rts2 optics because they have a s#!tty habit of breaking....but i did own a 10moa v5 and it was amazing. Nice, bright, clear and crisp. If you zero at about 15 yards it never puts the dot more than an inch away at 30 yards and most times since its just a giant blob you just cover the target and blast away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the second time it has failed me so we'll see what happens. I picked up a used rts2 v4 6moa as a backup which will now be my primary until I decide on a better option. From my experiences with several shooters they all seem to have failures. If that is the case I guess I'd rather have one at a $350 price point rather than $600 price point and always have a backup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A holosun 510c or one of the new sig Romero xls. Those are the best on the market and both have amazing warranties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope it works for $600+.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chillywig Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I like the big dots. For me its easier to pick up. Plus it reaches a level of brightness the smaller moa RTS2 can not seem to achieve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kujo929 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I used the Holosun 510 and liked it. Only went to the sig XL to try a larger dot. Window size is a good compromise. Would like to try a 10moa but don’t want to go back to that small of a window as the rts2 has. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomjerry1 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 I have two, like them both. I wanted 8 MOA, is what I was using with a Slideride, and was very happy. Had to go with the 10 MOA, 8 was not available, but am very pleased with the 10. I was a little unhappy with the 10 at first, the dot will distort at high brightness indoors, but outdoors it is very crisp. Also find that he sunlight does not wash out the dot like the Slideride. So far, they have been very good on battery life, both new the beginning of this year, and still a strong dot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your opinion does the dot on the 10 moa RTS2 truly seem bigger than the 8 moa on a slide ride? I was told slide ride moa appears bigger than the same MOA on the Rts2.

tomjerry1 Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 No, to me, the 10 MOA appears larger. The dot is also brighter, which help at the range. I have had the Slideride dot wash out in the sun, but have yet to have that happen on the RTS2-V5. I'm very happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
