Primary Arms Micro red dot $80
Bushnell TRS-25 $85
Vism Micro Green Dot $60
Thanks!

Bushnell TRS-25 for the win with...
- A good brightness on 7 (any higher it is very bright)
- 4 to 6 level was good also! just depends on outdoor conditions
- Has a 3moa dot
- built like a tank
- Waterproof to 10'
The other 2 haven't used however I had purchased one that looked exactly like the Primary Arms Micro red dot(off of E-bay) and at setting 11 it was just not bright enough to see well in broad daylight, did Zero in well though and with a quick release I would not have changed it except for the reasons above (it had a 1moa too)
Down side of the Bushnell TRS-25....
- Has a bluish green tinge when you look threw it(still not to bad though)
- The device that makes the red dot takes up a little of the viewing space in the 5 o'clock position
- Brightness level knob turns hard
Still not bad for $80 to $100 of course you could go for the Micro Aimpoint for $588.00
but as a rule I try not to put items that cost more than the rifle....
One Last note about height if you are going to use iron sights your going to want a riser... I went with an absloute co-whitness(I'm using magpul gen 2 flip ups) with a 3/4 or .83 riser for $12.95
