best cheap red dot

[zahc]

Preferably under 150. Under 100 even better, but all opinions welcome. I want one for slug guns, maybe .22's. Mostly just to try one out. Never used one except on my bb gun ages ago and remember liking it.

I have to say the best cheap priced red dot sight, is Millett.I tried cheaper ones and was disapointed.
I invested in a Millett red dot sight for my AK-47, it has worked great.

Im considering putting one on my Bushy A2 shorty.

i have the Simmons Blazer
i think it was 35 bucks

despite several direct 68 caliber paintball hits at 250 fps
it keeps on doing the RDoD

i think the BSA is the same unit:

For the money, it's impossible to beat UltraDot.

Best value = UltraDot. My local dealer orders mine, for under $130 delivered.

I've got a Millett 30mm with adjustable dot size on my FAL. It seems to work OK with the recoil of .308, but the dot tends to ghost a bit at only around 7 on the brightness. On a really bright sunny day, it washes out at any lower brightness level.

OTOH, the cheap BSA that I have on my 9mm Camp Carbine is bright and clear up to about 9 or 10. Go figure.

I currently own two red dots; a BSA, and an Aimpoint. While the Aimpoint is well worth the money, the BSA did just fine for the time I used it. Now it just sits in my gun safe. I have been thinking of putting it on my turkey gun to see how it does, either way, it works well for the money
