looks wonky but it's an absolute tank. Only thing bad I have to say about it is that the glass has a blue tint, but it's still very clear. The battery life sucks because it's a holosight, but it still blows eotech out of the water on every single feature.

1) focal planes. Irons require the use of 3 focal planes. An optic only needs one to function. So it’s faster, all of the times. 2) threat focus. Because red dots give you a single focal plane, you’re always looking at the target and environment, not so dumb pierce of metal next to your hand 3) size of aiming point over target. Typical red dot is 2 MOA, typical front sight post is like, 10. You do the math. 4) low light capability. Irons don’t work without light at multiple focal planes. Red dots always work. 5) NVG compatibly. Can’t see irons through your tubes.

You shouldn't get an optic that has specific range markings unless you use the exact same ammo and setup. It's fine if you're only running say, m855a1 on a 14.5" barrel, but they're just clutter if you use different types of ammo because you can't rely on the range markings
