The second mag I shot with the 3 MOA was very good for me but the damage was already done. My first mag of the night is usually not my best and this is no exception so in fairness I believe I could have had a tighter group with it. I screwed up by not shooting a warm-up mag and started with the 3 MOA dot on my pistol. He discussed the issue with several other shooters and they have the same experience.Īgain not trying to sell anyone on any dot size, just trying to share experiences in hope it may help some one make a decision.īelow are the pics of the 10 and 25 yard targets, my shooting of the 15 yard target with the 6 moa was so bad it makes it an invalid comparison.ġ0 yard target. Compared to irons I believe the dot is an unfair advantage.Īs a pervious post mentioned the possibility of having a problem with the smaller dot in the sun, I did talk to the guy who told me this to dig a little deeper. Im not trying to say a dot is for everyone but definitely a tool that I find very useful. If you up close with a dot, dont worry about finding it just see the target in the window and shoot. I feel the dot has an advantage in off angle since you eye does not need to be in direct like like sights. I know that the first time I used a dot in the weekly competition my scores increased dramatically, 3 other guys I know experienced the same results.įinding the dot is no different than finding sights it is a learned skill, watch any new shooter with irons. Most who dont like the dot are those with little or no experience with them. Sorry I would not clear this up because I know it tough to choose dot size, especially if you dont have an opportunity to try both. If the need to shoot over 25 yards consider the 3 MOA size. My advice if one is on the fence (or if used outside)is to get the 6 MOA. I will post if you guys really want to see. Also the 6 MOA dot shot low for me and I did not adjust. At 15 yards I fired a mag with the 6 MOA pistol that was awful. I am reluctant to post target pics since they may tell a story that is not accurate. It should also be noted that I have fired over 10 thousand rounds with my 3 MOA dot so definitely more familiar with it. And of course the concern with the smaller dot in the bright daylight. If shooting fast I think the larger dot would be an advantage and if shooting beyond 25 yards the 3 would be better. I know that is not the answer that anyone is wanting to hear. When all said and done I did not have a preference either way. At 25 yards the MOA dot covered the 4 inch target I was shooting at.
At 10 yards no big difference but at 15 yards the size difference was very noticeable and even more so at 25 yards. I did not shoot rapid fire so I can not comment on which one is faster for follow-up shots. I shot 20 rounds out of both pistols at 3 distances 10,15, and 25 yards.
He shoots competition and outside he was having a real hard time find the dot and if the brightness is turned up it "stars out". Then added that if it would be used outside the 6 MOA is the only way to fly. When I told my friend what I wanted to do(he owned both 6 and 3 dots) his first response was whats best depends on intended use. Before testing both back to back I would have recommended a 6 MOA for most pistol applications. I do have a 3 MOA dot on my G34 and a friend has a G34 with a 6 MOA dot both pistols are modified very similarly. It features a waterproof and shockproof construction.After seeing a thread about the Holston dot and a Youtube reviewer made the statement that a 2 MOA dot was best so I decided to try a back to back test to better form an opinion.
It offers multiple anti-reflective coatings on all air-to-glass surfaces to increase light transmission. The Vortex Viper 6 MOA Red Dot Sight is a must have for the perfect aim when hunting or shooting.
