I have a RRA entry tactical and am considering my optics options. I need to stay under $400
Rifle will be primarily used for deer and hog hunting. Longest shots will be out to 150 yards with most shots between 50-100 yards Will a 3 moa red dot like the SPOT provide enough accuracy at 150 yards to be used for hunting or do I need a variable power? Does anyone have any experience with the SPOT scope red dot. It is at the top of my list currently. Thanks for helping out the new guy. |

Ive heard mixed reviews on the spot.
Between 50-100yds it should accomplish its intended purpose. Creating only 3" circle at 100 and 1.5" at 50 Out to 150 you might want to consider a 3x magnifier. Not saying that a standard dot isnt accurate out to 150 but will assist you in providing more accurate shots out to those distances |

My Spot dot is about the size of a clay pigeon at 100yrds. A tad smaller, but about the same size. If you kill zone is the size of a clay pigeon at 150yrds you should be GTG.
For what you have in mind, I'd say look at the Millet DMS ( 1-4x). Example of optic |
| Thanks everyone for you replies. I think I will need some magnification after further review. I like the Millet 1-4 and have seriously considered it but I would ideally like something more compact and I could put on top of my Matech BUIS. I just read about the primary arms fixed 4x and thinking a fixed 4X might be a good option. |
