I know an Aimpoint PRO would be wonderful, but I'd like a sub-$200 sight for my .223/556 AR-15 that is strictly a range toy. Which would you choose and why?
The Lucid caught my eye too. I hear good things about it. From what I read, cons are the detents for reticles are a bit mushy, it is a bit heavy, and it has flunked a waterproof test a time or two. I'm still drawn to it.BTW, the one on your list that interested me for fun factor is the Lucid HD7.
It has selectable reticles and if I remember correctly it comes with a screw in 2x magnifier on the eyepiece.
I have an older Chinese clone of a Ultradot with 4 reticle selection and it is still fun to shoot with. It too has been moved across several rimfires.
Wow, overwhelming number of votes for the Bushnell. I already have one on a .22 pistol and like the sight, but think I want something different for my AR. I ended up ordering a SPARC II. From reading reviews the Primary Arms sounds great, but the Vortex warranty sounds really good. I went with the SPARC II over the Stikefire II because of the 2MOA dot vs. 4 MOA. Not sure how I'll like the smaller tube, but I'll give it a shot.
