Leapers Red Dot any good??

Leapers UTG Red Dot Sight 38mm Tube 1x 4 MOA Red Green Dot Low Medium

Placed the order for this one last night. Hopefully it serves me well. In my price range and two mount height options included. Thanks to everyone for all the advice.

I've been running that exact optic on my 15-22 for about 5 months now (the wife bought it for me for Christmas). I'd say I've put about 1K rounds though my 15-22 since then and the sight has performed perfectly. You should be just fine with that one.
 
Choosing UTG red dot

I have never used a red dot, so I am undecided on one for my 15-22. These two UTG models interest me: the DS3039 and the DS3068. I like the looks of the longer model 3068 better, but I wonder if the shorter one would be more practical.
 
I have the Leapers Golden Image 30mm Red/Green Dot Sight (SCP-RD40RGW) and love it. I haven't had a bit of problem with it.

Once dialed in my groupings are within 1" diameter at 25 yards, which is probably influenced more by me than the sight or ammo (meaning with more controlled breathing I'd likely be able to improve on the groupings).

I have the sight mounted on a UTG Low Profile Riser rail so I can also use the stock sights for co-witnessing if desired as both the front and rear stock sights align perfectly with the dot. In fact, I often leave the rear sight up to align the dot to the target which seems to help my groups probably because it helps me with a standardized, repeatable shooting posture.
