Hey all,

The interweb seems to be filled with opinions on this, however, they are mostly for MSR use.  I have my own thoughts and preferences, but I thought it would be interesting to see what size dot the majority of you guys and girls prefer. Thank you.

I've pretty much settled on the 4moa dot, BUT there are days that the two MOA seems much clearer.

The 2 moa has smaller star bursts and multiple dots. YMMV Smile

The 3 MOA FF3 dot is kind of starry at the next to lowest intensity.  My UD Micro 2 MOA looks like a perfect circle at the next to lowest intensity.

For those of you that said you switch dot size from long to shirt line, does the dot keep zeroed when you switch?

I tried it.  It changes.  Different scopes might change different amount.  Now I just stick to the 8 MOA
