So I came across this seeall sight and was wondering if anyone has used it ? or knows anyone who has one ? And if so do they like it? I really like the idea
Of it and most reviews are awesome on it, I'm debating on getting one of these or an actual red dot RMR? just not sure these look very promising though.

My brother has one on his 45-70 contender, and I have shot it a bit.  The little triangle and bars sight picture is a bit strange coming from someone used to conventional irons, and I don't think it is quite as effective for precision shot placement.  It does require good eye placement relative to the sight as it does not have the the lateral and vertical freedom that most red-dot sights have.  This makes it interesting when mounted on a pistol.   It is about like lining up conventional irons in this respect.

The adjustments are a bit unintuitive, and lack known click adjustments.  Sighing the thing in is a lot of trial and error.  But, once sighted in, it holds up to the recoil of that 45-70 pistol.  My brother seldom uses full power loads in it, however.  

One nice thing is that it does not require batteries.  But, it is not a low light sight by any stretch of the imagination.  ETA: the one my brother has is not the tritium version.

Thanks for the help and insight, I'm still torn on what to get either this or the vortex venom? I like the idea of the seeall but just not sure of its accuracy and ability to see the target very well with it ?which leans me more toward the red dot ...
