But then I have had some M tell me that they shoot something like 12 or 12.5 with a triangle dot. Part of me wants to get a Venom 6 MOA b/c everyone says the 6 is the best. However, I started with a Viper 6 MOA and liked it a lot but found some good deals on Venom's 3 MOA and liked how you can adjust them different from the Viper and how you didn't have to take the optic off to change the battery.įor me, I have not noticed a big difference, even at a sunny match but so far I have only shot one with 3 MOA and only did about a dozen with the Viper 6 MOA. I went the cheap but unlimited warranty route as I am just a C shooter in Carry Optics and do not invest a lot of time in it. Unfortunately not many people shoot carry optics that I have seen at our matches, so I haven’t been able to fondle anything else yet. I just really want the manual controls and while buying another I thought I would go for the upgraded version. I was aware of the non auto adjust on type 2.

Read the manual to understand how to switch between modes and how to lock modes. PPS, RMRs with manually-adjustable brightness also have an auto-brightness feature and that's what they default to when you turn them on. It means the battery compartment and contacts have been redesigned to prevent loss of contact with the battery under the severe G forces that a slide-mounted optic is subjected to. PS, "Type 2" does not mean an RMR has manually adjustable brightness. BTW, the SRO has the same exact footprint as the RMR.

IF you decide you want to buy something else, skip the manually-adjustable RMR and go straight to a 5 MOA SRO. The auto-adjust feature in RMRs works very well outdoors.

The 6.5 MOA dot is damned near perfect for action pistol sports. So it wouldn’t be frame mounted.īefore you sink any money into anything, go shoot a few matches. I’m not sure if an RMR is bright enough to be used at 3.25 as you mentioned. I’m looking to upgrade to a Type 2 RMR but I’m just having trouble with dot size. So right now I have a 6.5 MOA RMR that is non adjustable.
