WOW! I swapped out a scope for a cheap reflex red dot sight and I’m really liking how quickly and accurately I can shoot with it. Sure, I won’t be winning any RMAC or EBR competitions shooting like this but for plinking fun in the backyard, it turns me into a quick draw sniper! Ha ha ha!
Finding the target quickly and shooting it IS very easy with this sight setup. I could see this being a great way to go pesting in a close range situation at 25 yards or less or inside a building. I’m hitting tin cans just past 50 yards and 1” spinners close up at 15 yards with very few misses. At 50 yards I put the dot just under the can.
I wanted to share this with you to encourage others to try it out. Shooting like this is the BOMB! Also, it makes the shooting package lighter (compared with scope) and more maneuverable.
