88GW Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Anyone use one of these or know about them. I am looking top mount one on a TC .308 handgun. Looking for quick target acquisition for deer hunting. Shots no longer than 100yds probably more like 50 yds though. Wondering if it will holkd up to the recoil of this little hand cannon. Currently II have a TC 2-7 scope on it but it is just too slow for treestand hunting. Shooting from a bench it is a tack driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HopkintonHunter Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I have one on Remington 870 sps 12g ultra-mag, I really like how you can adjust the brightness of the dot. So far it has held up well to the recoil of the 3.5" turkey loads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88GW Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Good to hear that it has held up. I have looked at them and for the price they seem pretty good. I am not sure how to compare the recoil of the 12ga shotgun to a .308 handgun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HectorBuckBuster Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I have a red dot on my Remington 1100 that I use just for deer hunting. I love it. I do alot of still hunting by myself and this is great for that.I can pick the deer up quick with it. I change the battery at the beginning of every season and it last all season plus some.

88GW Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Thanks for the replies. I figure with a lifetime warranty and its ability to hold up to your shotguns, I should be good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
