mil dots or rangefinder ????

Mil dots are designed to help with range estimation and in my opinion helps with follow up shots. I don't have much experience with range finder scopes. If it's on the the coitac scope go with mil dot or a simple cross hair.

Mil dots. I use it for a 22, and it works pretty well. Especially for the price.

red dot scopes are more then adequate for this seeing the distance it shoots with an accuracy. SNIPER COMPACT RED/GREEN DOT LTRD35 WITH MOUNT ~~~ $25.99 + $9.49 shipping

If the part number ends in RF it is a range finder optic. I suggest you go to a web site that sells the full line of Osprey scopes and get the part number for the one that has the mil dot retical and then do a search on Amazon for a price comparison.

a LED dot is better...anyone who calls this a laser is not familiar with optical sites. Laser sites are ok but personally an LED sight is easier.

The difference is the type of sight grids you will be looking at through the scope. The $101. model has what is called "Range Finder" the $114. model has the P4 Sniper grids. Depends on how or what you are shooting as well as your preference. I prefer the P4 Sniper grid myself. If you are not familiar with the two, you may want to go to a dealer and check them out so as you will be satisfied with the one you get.

Hi KC,Sorry l gave you the wrong scope info for one of my three ones. The one you are asking about has top, left and right mil-dots. I would send a picture but don't know how. Sorry about that. It is a great scope.

Zero is zero. Where FFP and SFP differ is in the on the BDC or mil dots. The distance between dots changes on a second focal plane scope like this based on power setting. So you BDC dots will only be accurate at a certain power, usually highest. (Or 10 on mil dot scopes). I don't know where the BDC is set for on this particular scope, but I would bet it's 4/max. Who would shoot 500 yards on 1x?

The pinpointer has nothing to do with the main metal detector. It is used after you have dug up some soil and are sifting through looking for little stuff that you can't see right away. I separate my soil into piles and go over each with the main coil. Never needed a pinpointer, yet. Saw one (brand unknown) in use in some cruddy sandy soil that was giving a signal but couldn't see anything. It turned out to be a .22 bullet. Had to practically touch the bullet with the pinpointer probe to get a signal. Could have found it with a sifter (much cheaper).

In a nutshell, Bushnell has fewer "bells and whistles", but IMHO, is easier to use for basic, such as distances (obviously) and hazards. When I compared the two at my local golf shop, I thought Garmin's graphics were difficult to make out on a wrist worn small screen device. Maybe that's due to "older eye syndrome" !

Well I haven't noticed any issue. At 2 mil it is half the size of most other red dots. If you use the magnifier it will be 4mil. How far out is the target? The further away your target the more the dot will cover it!

I believe the sightmark comes with a rather tightness ir flashlight and is good out to about 25 yards. I have a sightmark ghost hunter but have only used it in backyard with a marked yardage range.

Minute of angle. In other words the red dot is smaller and would give you a tighter group at 100 yards. An 8moa dot is bigger then a 4moa dot.

There are so many to choose from, but I found for me that the "JSB MATCH Diabolo Exacts" in the 8.44 grain size worked well for me. About $12-$15 for a tin of 500. You can pay less, but you will see a drop in your accuracy. Also, it took about 100-200 shots before my PT-85 was consistent in shot pattern.

Valentine One has a far greater range and to be honest the arrows make all the difference. I want to know where and how many threats there are. All the other bells and whistles are just fluff for me. That's why I chose V1. It does the job, period. I'm a former police officer and understand speed detection. V1 is simply the best for the money.

Red Dots are Okay at reasonable ranges. But the AR platform has a tremendous potential for accuracy. One cannot, in my experience, take full advantage of that potential without a good scope. There are better ones, but my Browning White Gold Medallion will shoot less than 1 MOA @ 300 yards with this scope. Dollar for dollar you cannot go wrong with this one. Lemme know if I can offer more help.

If you are going to use the rifle for hunting the Tasco will do fine. If you plan to do long range shooting I would go with the Mil-Dot scope. Hope this helps..........

The Black edition has the same forward lens as the 9500xi, so supposedly it boosts the range an additional 40%. Not to sway you towards a different detector, but I bought a Valentine One about a year ago. I would highly recommend getting that over any of the Escorts. Knowing WHERE the radar is, is way nicer than IF there's radar, and IF it's fake or legit.
