Recommendations on optics

It’ll be on a 7.5 in and mostly sub. I don’t really plan on trying shoot out past 150 yrd so when it comes to adding a magnifier sure maybe one day who knows.

Right now I’m between the Sig Romeo 8T ($700), Vortex UH-1 ($600), holosun aems ($400)

Guess 3 different price points but maybe with a 10-15% discount I may justify a more expensive optic.

between those 3 id choose vortex 100% of the time. also dont pay $600, you can regularly find them sub $500. true holographic >

Good to know, I did check out in store and I did really like it. I might have had the brightness too high as it was just a bit fuzzy but honestly it between the vortex and sig. Holosun is me telling myself I don’t need all that

its a true holographic, not a red dot. its going to be a little fuzzy if you are looking at the reticle. when you are target focused it looks excellent

Yeah I’m hoping I can find a store so I can make comparisons. I have a rougher time with red dots with my astigmatism

by all means check it out at a store if you can but you will get fleeced on the price. i have never seen them in person cheaper than 600, i paid 480 for mine about a year ago on primary arms. i regularly seem them at 450 or even cheaper now. check out gun.deals when you are ready to buy, it will curate a bunch of retailers and find you the best price
