I need another red dot and I'm not sure I want to spend Trijicon or Insight money again.

Right now I've narrowed it down to the Burris FF3 or the Vortex Viper. The only dislike I have on the Viper is having to take it OFF to change the battery and I'm told the battery life is crap if you use anything but "low" but I do like the way it looks.

Input?

What about the Vortex Venom?  
It has a top-load battery compartment and is available in 3MOA as well as 6 MOA.

Might be a bit late.

I have the Viper on an M&P CORE.

I bet that thing ran for...maybe 20-30 hours before it got too dim to see in broad daylight. It was on WTFO settings.

I just changed the batt. last weekend for the first time since buying it... 4 months ago

I put a Venom on mine.  Vortex has a pretty good mil discount that'll knock the price back a bit.
