I agree with Sheral, The UD is hands down the best, and Larry Carterstands
behind them. Personally I like the 1" Dots because you still need to line
up your dot in the middle, sorta like a peep site for irons. The new 4 dot
scopes give you some adjustment to what you see when looking through the
site. Had they been invented when I bought all of mine that is what I would
have bought, but with the 6 UDs I have, thats enough. Can't go wrong with
Ultradots and Larry Carter.

Subject: [BULLSEYESHOOTERS] I AM READY FOR A RED DOT.....Need HELP!


Hi Group,
I am giving in to my aging eyes...Iv'e tried a variety of things so I
could stay with the iron sights....but it just is a lost cause..... I
need some advice....First I shoot bulleye, 50 ft gallery course...., I
shoot an S&W Model 41, 7/14 barrel. I need glasses for distance and
for reading....I need help in choosing a red dot....and have a few
questions....

1. Is a red dot better than a Holographic sight? (like a Bushnell
Holgraphic)...also called a Reticle Sight.The holographioc seem cool
but I have not seen any in use at the range.....

2. If a red dot is better,what size should the dot be (MOA 1,2,3,4,5)?
Some I have seen come with four different sizes (millett, ultradot)
but I assume one is best for the shooting I would be doing....right???

3. What size is best? 1 inch/25mm or 30mm. The 30mm is the largest I
have seen.....
4. What brand is the best value.....Ultradot and Tasco Propoint II I
have heard are good....but there are several out there in all price
ranges including BSA, Millett, Bushnell, Aimpoint etc.....My approach
to shooting is to get the best equipment I can reasonably afford and
not blame the equipment when I shoot poorly. I don't want to spend a
fortune on this scope but I do want good quality and ease of use.

My average is 207 (established last year) and on a good day now I
shoot 225 or 230...but not consistently....

All suugestions and answers gratefully welcome and appreciated
especially from those of you that have had some experience in
comparing scopes......Thanks very much....Dennis (Buffalo, NY)

Would appreciate all the help and advice I can get
