I think the chevron would be great for a rifle but for my purposes it's overkill. A shotgun isn't likely to be shot over 100 yards unless it's using sabot slugs which requires a rifled barrel. I understand some Foster slugs are getting longer distances but I don't think I've even heard of any that do well at 100 yards.

That's not the type of shotgun I'm putting the PA sight on. I have shotguns like that but the Kel-Tec KSG isn't one of them. My 870 is very accurate to about 70 yards with Foster slugs. I'd be surprised to find that the Kel-Tec does as well but it could happen.

But the chevron does look like a good way to make a red dot type sight. You don't have to hide the target with the red dot. With larger dots in sights that can be a real problem when it comes to precision shooting at long distances. You can't hit what you can't see. I use fine reticle scopes for shooting long distances for that same reason.
