Dot sizes for bowling pins 25 feet.
Here is what I come up with for dots on bowling pins at 25 feet.
8 MOA = .67"
6 MOA = .5"
3 MOA = .25"
2 MOA = .17"
Scaled with a CAD program.

You have done a nice piece of homework. Your answer is obvious; the 8 moa dot is the best. Remember, for minimizing 'time taken' in shooting pins the handgun should not stop on the pins for sighting. The 8 moa will be the best for being able to see during the 'sweep' of the table by your handgun.........

Burris FF3 8 MOA
I already have 2 dot guns and both are Burris FF3 8 MOA, I'm happy with them. I was just posting the comparison for reference.

I use a C-More with a 12 minute dot. 16 wouldn't be bad either. Easy to pick up the dot and fast acquisition between targets.

What sizes are available? I can draw them up also. I'm making it just for reference because a few people have been asking how the different dots compare for shooting pins or steel.

Not to change the topic or hijack...... I haven't seen a c-more in years at the range.....over 60 a big dot has some added appeal.... how durable are they??????

I've had real good luck with my C-Mores. I have one on each of my pistols and revolver and have fired over 25K rounds through with no problems.
C-Mores are the number one Red Dot Sight being used in USPSA matches.
I normally turn mine on the start a match and leave it on all day. Same with practice. I change batteries about every 6 months.

I use Bomar sights on my Springfield Armory M1911A1s. Works great for outdoor pins.
