Boom Stick, how's that ruger sound with the octane?

Better than hollywood quiet. The 22 suppressor gets hardly any use now.

I like the MRO more, but I don't have an issue using and trusting either one.

Never looked through an MRO but I bought a PRO a few months before the MRO was released. I've never regretted my decision or wished I'd waited though. The PRO is awesome IMO.

Wanted an MRO on my first build until I looked through one and hated the fish eye, and blue tint so I was going to get the Pro but spent the money on a new dag instead

MRO. Not only is it lighter w/greater battery life, the controls are more ergonomic and it comes w/a lifetime warranty (AP's do not).
Out of all the dozens of people who have tried one of my MRO's, not a single one has complained about (or even commented on) tint, magnification, etc.
The PRO, while a good optic, still has that exposed switch knob that can break from impact rendering the optic DOA (there's a reason the CompM4 & M4S went to a knob that's physically disconnected from the switch).

That battery claim has got to be theoretical because I have had the same battery in my PRO longer than the MRO has been a product. I am going on 4 years with the same PRO battery, so even if the claim is accurate, it's essentially a distinction without a difference given how long the PRO's battery lasts.

AimPoint is bomb-proof and proven, but the PRO is fairly large. The MRO is significantly less expensive than AimPoint micros, but there are even less expensive alternatives in a similar size.

I guess what I'm saying is you can't go wrong with any of the major RDS optics on the market now. Get your eyes behind one, see what you like and buy that.

I bought a MRO and T2 to compare. I wanted to like MRO I even tried talking myself into liking it but when it came down to it the T2 won. I just couldn't get past the magnification and heavy blue tint.

I like and have both but I like my MRO better. The bulk and weight are what kills the PRO...not that it's really huge or unwieldy or anything.

What difference does it make

Oh, I don't know.

What difference does anyone's preference of anything make?

MRO.

Weight/size matters.

MRO is superior in every way.
