do you think a 7 moa dot on an aimpoint is too much?
I never heard of a dot that big. Any advice would be great.
thanks.
 
Re: Looking at a 7moa aimpoint.

7 moa is really big. What would you shoot with that? cars doors? refrigerators?
 
Re: Looking at a 7moa aimpoint.

It all depends on what you will be using it for.

The closer the application, the bigger the dot (but even then I think a 7 MOA dot is WAY to big!).

Just my 2 cents.

Shoot Straight,

that 7min dot was for action pistol use , i'm pretty sure.
 
Re: Looking at a 7moa aimpoint.

Trijicon makes the large dot as well for their RMR, they have 7 & 13 moa in dot and triangles. Sounds good for a shotgun or some pistol applications. I guess it serves its purpose close quarters.

Which Aimpoint? All the .mil models either have a 2 or 4 MOA dot. Are you looking at one of the hunting models?
 
Re: Looking at a 7moa aimpoint.

I would stick with 2 or 4, I had a 6 MOA dot and at 100 yards well it covers half the target. Good enough for combat accuracy, but not great, for CQB that big dot was nice though.

Early Aimpoint "Comp" models featured various dot sizes including 7moa.
