[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5295274, member: 1409"] For your thinking & situation, I would recommend a Burris Fastfire. There is no magnification and you can "see" almost everything much like you do with just a front bead sight. The big difference is in how you can adjust the "red dot" point of aim to exactly match its point of impact, even when you don't have your cheek & gun just right. You could have your cheek most anywhere near the stock and still see that "red dot", and it will still hit right where the red dot shows. I love the small red-dot "reflex" sights (such as the Burris Fastfire), but do not like the larger "red dot" sights. If you get to the point where you have trouble clearly seeing the target and the sight simultaneously, a traditional low-magnification scope will be the better choice. I actually prefer it anyway as far as the sight itself goes, but it adds about a pound of weight to your setup, compared to about one ounce with a Fastfire. [/QUOTE]
