I recently purchased the Aimpoint 9000L red dot from Midway, they were on sale $100 off. This is the 4 MOA sight. I've got this Remington 7600 pump, in 30-06, that I bought about 1 year ago. This is a very rough rifle, thought it might be a good truck gun, or candidate for Duracoat project. Anyhow, got it mounted and I think it looks pretty good. It took five shots to zero dead on at 25 yards without a bore sighter. Later I was able to shoot a 200 yard target, although sitting with my elbows on my knees, I was still able to hit a 8 inch target. I think that should be deer accurate. On a bright Alabama day at 1p.m., I can see the dot very well, and don't even have the brightness on the highest setting. This is my first experience with a red-dot, or the 30-06 caliber, and overall I am very pleased. So, what do you all think? Like it, rifle blasphemy, or neutral? I think it will be my new go-to for a truck gun, or casual walking of the woods during deer season. It might also see some tree stand use, since I mostly hunt short range in the woods. Also, sight in and testing ammo was Remington factory with 150 grain Cor Lokt.

Maybe you're thinking of ACOGs or something? Aimpoint's most expensive model, the M4 series of reddots (same as issued to soldiers in the Army) are around $800. The Micros are around $550-600, and the others are lesser (with the 9000L running around $380, I think)
