Title: Buckmark red dot
Post by: Mossy on October 10, 2020, 08:56:34 PM: I’m looking for suggestions on a middle of the road sight to put on my Buckmark with a suppressor. Lightweight and small footprint would be great

Or a Burris Fastfire

Also id look for one with the shake awake thing.

I was thinking the tube style would be quite a bit heavier than the reflex style? I was actually looking at the venom based on reviews

Well like i said, theyre not bad. Killed 3 bears with a venom on my 444 this year, so they work. Can bullseye a target at 100 yards off a shooting bench, not bad for a 3moa dot. I have one sitting in a box, still trying to decide if i should put it on my 22lr pistol or sell it. Have 2 others, one on the 444 and one on a 556 upper.

Post by: Alchase on October 12, 2020, 08:47:40 PM: I also like the Delta Point Pro as well. I have an RMR Type II, the only thing I do not like about it is the battery is on the bottom, so you have to unmount it to change the battery every year or two then re-zero.
Besides that, they are the gold standard of Reflex sights.
