looking at a second sight not sure which one as ive never owned one or even held one!

im looking at the
docter red dot
the burris fastfire 3 3 Moa dot
leupold delta point
aimpoint micro

any thoughts or suggestions im only doing it once for both of my hunting rifles so I wanna buy once cry once, they are being mounted to spur mounts.
I'm just looking for the best sight for hunting applications as a 2nd sight, the sight needs to be dust and water proof one will be decked beside a razor HD 5-20 and the other will be decked beside a vortex viper 4-16ffp. It is for hog bashing at close range where I live is a mix of open valley's for log shots and close intight scrub country where critters pop up mere metres away.
 
T-1 is the most durable by far, but is pricey and not as compact/lightweight as others. I've been happy with an RMR as an offset site; it's quite a bit more solid than the Fast Fire though not as cheap, however if I was was back on the 2-way range I'd default to the T-1.
 
What about the Razor red dot? It is a little bigger than the Burris but not as big as the T-1. I have one set up as a second sight on one of my guns and it seems like a pretty good product.
