A Primary Arms or a Holosun in that price range should be GTG

Start at primary arms/holosun/vortex. Maybe a used comp m2/m3 if you can find one in your price range.

Have two Holosuns and use em on HD carbines, both are 403gl. Great little optic, but mounts suck. Both of mine now sit in ADM mounts.

I just ordered a Sightmark Wolverine 2moa model on Amazon.
Looks good on paper and got several recommendations from other members.( and a coworker) https://www.amazon.com/Sightmark-SM26021-Wolverine-Red-Sight/dp/B00TOKD8K6 https://www.amazon.com/Sightmark-SM26020-Wolverine-Red-Sight/dp/B00TOKD6NK/ref=pd_aw_sbs_200_1?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00TOKD6NK&pd_rd_r=9de32f67-fb4f-11e8-ad57-cf031fceb313&pd_rd_w=db07W&pd_rd_wg=VJQ3C&pf_rd_p=926ebe02-3236-40c6-ac63-01ad178f498a&pf_rd_r=TY0HHY564NNSYMYMBBB1&psc=1&refRID=TY0HHY564NNSYMYMBBB1 |

At $219 this is my choice for 300BO SBR/Pistol. Nice big horseshoe for close in. Precision center for longer out with ranging. It works well in conjunction with a magnifier, but I took my magnifier back off as it is on a <100 yard gun, and the magnifier requires my eye to be in a specific spot, which slows me down. |

I run a Vortex Strikefire II on my HD AR. It’s a pretty good optic. MSRP is $230 but you can normally find them in the $150 range.

Aimpoint PRO. Last I checked, you can find multiple models on the EE sub $400.

Are you open to the idea of a 1x Prism sight?
If so, then Vortex Spitfire 1x DRT is fantastic and $199 https://www.amazon.com/Vortex-Optics-SPR-1301-Spitfire-Reticle/dp/B00HYRGOQQ Would suggest also looking at the Primary Arms Cyclops as well. |

$100 FDE Micro Dot
I put one of these on a friend's rifle using a leftover Vortex Crossfire Red Dot mount (Aimpoint Micro pattern). I want one now. |

Get one of the Rotary knob PA MD.
I've got a couple Pros, MRO's etc... but this thing impresses me and sits on my HD .300 blk. I've got no problems trusting it. |

I'm building an SBR in .300blk, primarily for a bedside/HD gun. It'll likely get a certain amount of outdoor use around the place, but home and yard will be most of it. I'm thinking about mounting a red dot optic. Which ones does the hive like in the 'cost-effective' category? Budget is about $200. Could go higher if needed. |

I say go with Primary Arms Advanced Micro Dot Removable Base. $120 on sale right now and a lifetime warranty. With their quality AND that warranty for that price ... dang hard to beat. You could buy almost 3-4 of these for the price of an Aimpoint Pro.
Or buy 2 for half the price of an Aimpoint PRO and you’ve got a back up If you want though, Aimpoint PRO is a solid choice if you choose to spend more. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Get a Primary arms advanced micro dot . Incredible value from an Awesome Company! I do like the AimPoint Pro, but it is pretty heavy & bulky compared to the PA Micro Dot, especially if you are putting it on a pistol or SBR. |

Holosun HS510C or the slightly more expensive/efficient HE510C.
