New to ML-Optics help
« on: May 21, 2025, 07:11:35 PM »
I bought my first ML.  I would like to know what you all prefer as far as optics go.  I have been looking at the Leupold RDS muzzy red dot but find mixed reviews online.   

I would love some input from the experienced here please. 

Thoughts?

Thank you all for you input.  I will have a look at the recommendations…. I see Midway has a good sale on Vortex right now.

I'm liking mine mine so far. Very clear and well defined reticle with a fine aiming point at a reasonable price.

I have an RDS on mine, no issues at all. I went  with Leopold for the last few minutes of legal hunting time. Before, it would still be legal shooting time, and I could not see the sights on my weapon. No problems now.
