I currently have a Leupold VX Freedom 1.5-4X on my GPR. I picked it for the low weight and clear glass. It replaced a Vortex Strike Eagle 1-8 gen1 for these reasons. I am thinking about going back to a red dot, for speed and target acquisition while shooting with both eyes open.
I have had a Vortex Strikefire and a Sig Romeo5. The Vortex was too bulky and heavy, and battery life kinda sucked. The Sig was okay, but the factory mount was an absolute instead of lower 1/3, and the screws stripped the housing rather easily.
Can't afford an Aimpoint or EoTech, possibly selling the Leupold in a FDE Aero lightweight cantilever to pay for a red dot. What would be some suggestions for a lightweight, durable, reliable red dot with good battery life?
Looking for reviews after long-term use on some newer models, which is why I am asking and not searching the internet and watching unboxing videos on YouTube TIA
