However, when target focused and using the dot it's more of a red smudge on target. When I'm staring at a red dot intensely, it looks something like a geriatric stripper on a pole instead of a perfect dot. I went down this path with prism optics and one day when shooting a red dot again I realized that I was chasing a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. I have astigmatism so bad that the best I can do to correct it is hard plastic gas permeable contact lenses, and even then I still get slight starburst effects with bright light. One day I will make an in depth post on this, but in short I would suggest not to give up on the red dot just yet. The BDC even works out with a 100 yard zero and 12.5 velocities with the lowest dot being 400 yards. I just finished putting together a new 12.5 AR and that 2x optic makes a lot of sense in that application. I have been unable to notice any slow down in my ability to engage targets versus a 1x red dot but with the AK, working the safety is the bottle neck for me.I've been looking at that specific optic for a few months now. My only concern with 3x would be a slightly slower target acquisition time. I went with the 2x as it was going on an AK and don’t see the need for any higher magnification and this is a newer model. They are that awesome.Īs for 3x - a similar scope to the one I purchased is available in 3x. If it wasn’t made in China - I would probably sell all my EoTechs and Aimponts and replace them with these prism scopes. I’m seriously considering picking one up with a 556 reticle. In fact it is in my opinion the best “combat” type optic I have ever used. I have been blown away by it! I love the reticle, the glass is clear and bright, it’s fast on target, the eye box is huge, and seems extremely well built. I recently purchased one of these from Primary Arms:
