I've been investing time to learn more about red dot sights. The result includes some answers -- and more questions, of course.
Among the conventional red dot sight systems, Ultradot appears to have the best reputation with pistol shooters. Their warranty is excellent, list prices are competitive, and they are not made in Red China. This should have been the end of the quest.
Unfortunately, I couldn't leave it alone. I am put off by the clumsiness of having a telescopic sight-like device atop my SRHs. A second class of red dot sights is significantly smaller, lighter, more unobtrusive. Among them are: Docter red dot; Trijicon red dot; Ultradot L/T; Burris Fastfire. Apparently, these devices also allow through-lens-view of target, and they automatically adjust dot intensity according to ambient light.
The devices are significantly lighter than conventional devices. None should have trouble with recoil dislodging device from mount system. They mount via Weaver system, so mounting is no sweat. Since the devices are mounted predominantly on semiautomatic pistols, it is likely that recoil from my 480s will prove no problem. At least two sights claim to be so petite that they can be used with standard (M1911??) holsters.
The sights are more expensive than most conventional red dot devices. Materials of manufacture vary significantly. Some are plastic with Acrylic lenses. Some are aluminum with optical glass lenses. Some of the optical glass is low-end, BaK-7 in binocular-speak, but I doubt this is significant for a device whose effective range would be less than 150 meters.
And red dot size varies from a smallest of 3.5 MOA to 11 MOA. This may be the place to decide among these devices.
For use with a Super Redhawk .480 Ruger, what single dot size will be easiest to use from off-the-muzzle through 80 meters?
From my brief examination of the Millet Multidot device, I acquired the 8 MOA dot easily. But I was not at a shooting range. I did not shoot. I had no opportunity to learn to use the device with any size dot. And the examination did not include sighting at any range greater than about 10 yards.
