Default Red dot suggestion .460 XVR

What Red dot if any is anyone running on their XVR? I took a gamble and purchased the Vortex Sparc II. Little sight is phenomenal to say the least. Only time will tell if it will hold zero. I have the 10.5 performance center .460 and the sight so far has held up to 60 rounds of the 200 grain hornady factory load and 45 rounds of buffalo bores 360 grain hardcast at 1900 FPS. Mount base has not come loose and dot has held zero well. With a no questions asked lifetime warranty it was worth the shot of you don't want to spend the extra money on a eotech aimpoint or trijicon. What is everyone running on their XVR?

2 Aimpoint H1 tried
) one lasted lasted 1200 rounds - held well until failure- repaired under warranty
) second lasted 2000 rounds- is outside warrenty- just sent it in and have heard nothing

Currently using an Ultradot 30 and so far so good, close to 1600 round now.

Also using the Ultrdot micro, it has about 500 rounds on it without issue, but I dont like the smaller tube so I Iam not shooting that gun much.

Have tried a varity of the cheap dot and most have failed to make a cylinder worth of shoots.

I could not get the two Delta Points I have sighted, they all held ok best I could tell but should not take a 100 rounds to get a dot sighted. Every adjustment I did made big change in POI so I finally gave up.

I used and EOTECH without issue for about 500 round - didn't like how it made the gun feel (or the look).

I have a Trijicon mounted on a 14"
but have not shot enough- about 100 rounds rounds through it to make any comment.

be safe
Ruggy
