Red Dot for .22

[glockstar]

I recently picked up a Ruger MKIII Hunter Target Mod. I really love this gun, its tack driver , great looks and a Pic rail. So does anyone have any suggestions on what type of red dot i should throw on? Dont really want to spend more than $250.00 or so but i dont really have any experience with pistol red dots. Any suggestions would be great thanks!

What type of shooting do you want to do with it? If it's bullseye the MatchDot Ultradot is the standard bullseye red dot.

Usually just shooting Clays at roughly say 15 - 20 rds. Nothing to crazy, no competition.

I have a Matchdot and it is nice, but Ultradot makes other, cheaper, models. You can save $50 and get the same thing without the variable dot size. I always use the 4 MOA dot size anyway...

BSA makes a cheap red dot that will work fine. Primary Arms make a Aimpoint micro clone that looks pretty good, about $80

Any one have any experience with the Burris Fast Fire II ? its around $220.00 or so and is the style id like to go with.

I have shot with a Burris Fast fire, they are nice, seem to be made well. I used a similar style Jpoint and C-more STS on my race gun, shotgun, AR and .22. In the end only my shotgun has that type of sight on it now

Ultradot are what most bullseye shooters. The 1" single dot model should be fine, about $125.00 online. Larry's guns in Maine is a good place to look. I own 4 or 5 of them for various pistols.

I have a BSA right in front of me.

I have an ADCO on my Pardini match gun. Its been great for the last 6 y, one battery and never loses its zero. Nice to have a <$100 red dot on a $2000 gun (of course I bought mine before the prices went nuts).

I know this brob doesnt help but i went to a goal yard sale and they had a red dot sight there for $5 they thought it was broken....the batteries were in wrong lmao!

this one seems decent. I've been using it on my MkIII 22/45.
it's 3 MOA at a decent price. it adds some weight to the rig which is kinda nice.

but, for clays at that distance, you could probably get pretty quick just on irons.

-sounds like CRSIII is trying to hook you up...

I have this for my MKIII 22/45 and M&P15-22 and it works perfectly. I can get single holes at 10 yards with this. There seems to be poor quality control at Bushnell though, about 25% of the reviewers claim the "T" was tilted in some way and had to return it. The ones they got after the returns usually worked better. I ordered one and it is perfectly fine. Its very easy to adjust and has 5 brightness levels for each color.
