42ATK Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Im planning on buying this. My steel challenge guns are all 2MOA green circle +dots, I don’t like red dots as much (I feel they get washed out more easily in non-ideal conditions). This would be the first big MOA (2+8MOA circle, which my astigmatism will turn into a dot overall lol) big window green dot offering I believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

42ATK Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 (edited) @RippSpeed in my own experience under speed shooting experience my dot doesn’t really get “lost” on green backgrounds as I’m usually close enough to on the plate or IPSC targets for me to know where it is, I’m bringing the dot to my eyes rather than searching with the dot. Long distance is another story Edited April 10, 2023 by 42ATK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philmadxx Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 I have one on preorder with Euro optics. Lots of reticle choices and a big window. No word on release date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog009 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 I'll be getting one as soon as they are available. I've seen Q2 as a release window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tator2k Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 I would be sometime I'd like to replace some older dot setups. It was hard going back to single dot instead of the circle dot with my eyes gettng older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeti Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Makes sense. It's good to have options. Think I'll like the dot with 20 moa circle. I already know I like the dot and 32 moa circle. Will probably get one when I see one actually for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlas33 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Ran one on my Atlas for a while. I really enjoyed it. Still have it even though I sold the Atlas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerTrace Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Any more comments on this? I ordered one yesterday to replace a 2.5 MOA SRO. I'm going to move to larger dots on all my guns eventually. I like that you can zero with the 2 MOA dot then switch to the dot and 8 MOA circle which I plan to use for USPSA matches. Not sure I will ever use the larger circles. Any reliability issues?

Not sure I will ever use the larger circles. Any reliability issues? I've got a couple of 3 gun buddies that run them and have good things to say about them. I haven't been in the market for a new dot for a while, so I still haven't picked one up, but I will be the next time I need a dot. I don't personally like the idea of the circle and dot reticle for a handgun, but I run a 510c on my open shotgun and really like it there. It helps me "aim" less with my shotgun, as I know my pattern will generally hit anywhere within the circle, so I can transition between targets a good bit quicker than I was with just a dot.

Racinready300ex Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 I have two of them, so far no issues. My round count isn't super high on them though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OPENB Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 I've had one on my LO Prodigy, about 5000 rds. so far. I didn't think I'd like the dot in the 8moa circle, but I use it as one big dot, and I'm into it now. The green version is the brightest dot I've ever used, I have to turn it down even in cloudless sunshine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rishii Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 I have one on my LO gun, in dry fire I stacked the dot and the 8 moa ring and liked it, but when I ran it in practice and matches I found it to be too big I’m running just the 2 moa dot and I turn it up till it blooms for most stages and turn it down if there’s any standards with far targets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoNsTeR Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Mine just lives on a .22 right now, haven't used it in USPSA. The "8 MOA" circle seems much bigger than that to my eyes, compared to an 8 MOA C-More. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandflea316 Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Have 507comp green on 3 open guns and three LO guns. Great optic. We run the 8 moa circle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt1911 Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 I use the dot and 8moa circle. It’s been awesome and that window is huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpm2953 Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 I like mine a lot. I have 2 of them. I run the dot with the 8MOA circle. I don't find it distracting or too big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitarmageddon Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 As a loyal 6moa gang member before the 507, I can say that turning up the 2moa point until it blooms a little bit is basically perfect. I always poo poo'd these small dots but this one is for sure nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always poo poo'd these small dots but this one is for sure nice. im going to try this, but the 8moa circle + dot is already so perfect on everything except 40 yard mini poppers that i haven’t gotten around to it. at 12-13 yards the 8moa circle fits entirely within the height of the upper a zone, and i can’t really shoot more accurately than that when racing. i do. turn it down 1-2 clicks if there is a preponderance of difficult targets.

RangerTrace Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Great info guys, thank you!! Impatiently waiting on Fedex as we speak..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 I just use the dot. I don't love the blocky 'ears' on it but I guess the Youtubers that like intentionally dropping guns won that battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
