    I think the TRS-25 is better than my eyesight.

    I tried one on my HBAR. That perfect bullseye hit is more of a blind pig acorn, I think...LOL

    Hell, I'm a buyer...

    Here's a used Primary Arms red dot I picked up (no magnification). 6 out of 14 center square hits at 50 yards, not bad.

    This target needs a little explanation: made adjustments halfway through this string with a Primary Arms 3X scope, resulting in the center hits at 50 yards. (Not 6X as seen on target)

    Traded a stash of .40 cal ammo for it (because I am exiting this caliber).

    With my eyesight, this is my new favorite sight. Runs about $250 new, but I still think the TRS-25s are EXCELLENT red dots and will have them in rotation.

    Sorry for derail...here in a rimfire thread.

    What's the consensus on Vortex Strikefire II red/green and or their bright red? I saw them recently for $119(red/green) and $124. It was a flash sale and I obviously hesitated too long and didn't get one.

    I have one and love it, especially being able to switch from red to green. Not the smallest optic but really not bad at all.
