I picked up a Bushnell TRS-25, about $90. Good deal and decent optic for a cheaper than Aimpoint option. How does it compare to the Primary Arms red dot or the SigSauer red dot? The Sig looked nice, it's about twice the price but still a lot cheaper than a Aimpoint T1 or H1.

I don't like PA scopes, most don't have lifetime warranty, to me that says a lot about the quality of there products, I do have a SPARC which I think is great, compared to the Bushnell(which only has a 2 year warranty) they are very close, I don't like the big knob on the Bushnell, but it works and lives on my 2245, the SPARC lives on my AR15, one thing about the Bushnell and SPARC compared to Aimpoints is battery life, on Aimpoints they seem to last forever, the same cannot be said about anything else.
I have the a Bushnell, a Sig and an Aimpoint Comp M4.
The Bushnell is better than the more expensive Sig. Neither is up to the Aimpoint.
This is the reason the Bushnell sits on my S&W M&P 15-22, the Sig is on my 10-22 and the Aimpoint is on my Knights Armament SR-15.

vortex makes good red dots, and they are probably the only company that backs them with a lifetime warranty. I turn to them if customers need a lower prices red dot. that being said, if someone is setting up a carbine for duty or self defense, I always recommend aimpoint. they are the most robust, have the best battery life, and nothing else really stacks up to them. most cheaper red dot sights don't hold up well, and you end up getting several anyway, so you might as well invest in something decent initially.
I'm using a Burris FastFire III on my turkey shotgun.
This thing is small, lightweight, has multiple power settings and is withstanding the pounding of 3.5" magnum shells.
I've seen other folks using this optic on pistols and ARs. They run about $250.
Burris has an "Unconditional Forever Warranty".

I run a Vortex Strikefire on my 300 BLK SBR, I had planned on upgrading to something better, but it has been everything I needed really. I just wish it had an auto off, I carry it in the truck some and it tends to turn itself on and run battery down.
