What is the High contrast glow ring? I suspect it is the face of the sight pins guard ring. Does it help in aiming?

Your right about the guard ring. I don't even see it when I'm sighting. I don`t think it helps in sighting as I consternate on the pins. I do like this sight.

It's pretty useless from my point of view. Around the ring of the sight is a piece of what seems like a tape that charges in the sun and then glows at dusk. Since you aim with the pins and not with this, I find it to be pretty useless.

It has a illuminated center dot that lights up red. Very nice to have. I've had scopes that had the whole reticle light up and it was way too much goin on in the scope and it would drain the battery way too fast. The center dot is simple effective and great on the battery. Plus with the crosshairs you won't even need the dot about 90% of the time.

The scope has no method of brightening the view through it. I have never seen one that had this capability, but the Aim scope in question is bright, and the illuminated cross-hair is helpful for darker targets.

The Buckmark works the same as all holographic sights (or red dot sights). Key to all sights is to 'sight them in' properly. The only problem I experienced was 'wash out' of the holographic image in sun light. OK at night; useless in the sun light (needs a sun shade).

I'm not positive, but I think the size of the front sight depends on the make and model of the gun plus the way the original front sight is installed. Some gunsmiths buy 6-inch tritium rods and cut them to size. Also, the way the original sight is mounted determines whether special machining is necessary. As far as visibility, glow in the dark is about as visible as it gets.

Yes, there is a tritium insert in the front sight surrounded by a huge white ring. They are easily seen in low and dark light conditions.

the dot will move in the sight as you move your head around while looking through. I've been practicing bringing the gun up to the same spot on my cheek everytime. seems to work well that way.

It puts it at perfect eye level.Once you find your "cheek" position it very quick. Now I personally don't run BUIS sights on my 300blk rifle so not sure if those will line up, however; I don't think you'll be disappointed!

Look on Hawke's website for the 'SR' reticle. That's better than any explanation I could offer.

Honestly when I got mine the rear sight did not have the U shape seen in picture. Mine came with standard square notch. However I did not return or complain because of the quality of the sights. Whatever you choose to do you should know that the 2 dot system is the best night sight profile I have ever had.

I am also cross eye dominant, and as with all red dots you should be shooting with both eyes open, which should help. I have not found much difference in performance from a "can you see it" perspective between this, an EOTech, and an ACOG, they all work about the same for addressing the cross eye dominance issue.

Yes, that is the gun I put it on. It works well, I keep it in a safe and check it monthly and the sights are always illuminated.

This is not a sight, it is a magnifier. It does not have elevation. You place it between your eye and the red-dot/holo/reflex sight and it will magnify the target for you. If you want my opinion, this is the best one for the money hands down. I have had over a dozen of these from different brands over the past few years and this particular one is my favorite. It's not perfect, but it's by far the best one under 200$ that I've found. I have not tried the Vortex magnifier yet, and I hear good things, but it's also 230$ or so... for 100$, get the TMS.

the scope has various levels of brightness that I believe will change the dot's moa? it's only a guess but I would guess the lowest setting is sub moa and it's brightest is probably moa to 2 or 3 moa? I typically use the dot to assist with lighting conditions. but the low level is usually adequate for most lighting conditions. if necessary i will adjust the brightness so as not to cover the target. I hope this may help?

Its not an actual dot its cross hairs.. works quite well not so much of a magnifier but great for cqb (close quarter combat) differentlevels of brightness so u can adjust on sunny days or at night..

It has illuminated circles although they do sell the style of reticle your looking for! Just do a little more research

Gold ring: No. BDC: Yes. This is a fine optic, I have it on my go to rifle. Super!
