you can range estimate. with 65 moa horseshoe, at 200 yds man is tip to top.
at 300 he is 1/3. at 400 he is 1/2 . at 500 he is 1/5 or 3rd dot to tip. at 600 3 dots.
chevron size maters for wind hold.
Seriously? It’s not magnified, so it’s unlimited I guess. The only thing that it would hide would be however much is blocked by the body. Saying that aside, you should be using both eyes open so the “field of view” is everything. I think you’re getting magnified optics mixed up with non magnified.
China, but so is your iPhone and your Holosun.
The BRC Swampfox Raider Micro Prism 1x20mm Prismatic Sights feature a 1 MOA adjustment click value.
It will depend on what mount you use and what sights you are using. If I remember correctly the low mount would be a full cowitness and the higher would be lower 1/3. I recommend running a high mount like 2.2. I run the unity tactical high mount, I don’t have to bend my neck down, and there are iron sights included under the red dot in the mount. I also run the unity tactical flip to center magnifier mount. Flip to center is better for obvious reasons, but it can hold a 3x, 4x or like I’m running a 5x. I learned a long time ago that body mechanics and proper set up weapon systems make a huge difference in speed and fatigue. I can shoot with my head in its normal position, this allows me to be more aware of my surroundings, I can hold positive way longer, everything is better.
Aimpoint T2 footprint
On the Sawmpfox site they offer 1.93” mount.
If you read the description, the details, the specs of use Google it would tell you that it comes with 2 mount heights.
I don’t remember the exact bit it’s very forgiving. If you’re using the illumination then as long as you keep both eyes open it’s not really that important. With prisms it’s not as easy as red dots but I’ve put the front cover on my prisms before and just used both eyes open. That way the distortion and weird light transfer doesn’t mess with me. Unfortunately you still have the eye box but as long as your optic isn’t mounted far away it’s still usable. In my opinion 1x prisms are pointless. Sure if you’re battery dies you still have a reticle but most optics of decent quality have motion activated on and off, and they also have solar backup. They make fiber wire red dots now that have a reticle that can be seen without illumination. They aren’t as good as prism reticles but they will do the job. As a civilian there is no situation in which you would need at etched reticle. If your battery dies and you don’t have solar backup up, extra batteries weigh nothing and take up almost no space. 1x prisms seem to be a solution no one needed. Now magnified prisms are awesome.
I’m my opinion a non magnified prism is a waste. You suffer all the issues of a magnified optic like eye box, eye relief, light transmission and you gain nothing. Get a green or red dot. Sig and Holosun make some high quality optics. Their dots come with multi-reticle options, bdc options, they have motion activated on and off (sits still for 3-5 minutes it turns off, as soon as it moves it turns back on), they have solar backup as well, they also had no eye relief or eye box limitations. You can mount your do as far forward as you want and it will still be usable, you also don’t have to be centered in the optic, as long as you see the dot, even if it’s in the corner that is where the round will go. You can add a magnifier behind the dot to increase how far you can see, you can get flip to the side or flip to the center magnifiers ranging from 3x to 7x. For your AR pistol you don’t really need magnification for “self defense” situations but you can always add one. I keep my magnifier in a small pouch on my gear and it’s a QD lever mount so I can pop it on and off anytime. Hopefully your AR pistol is at least 10.3” for 5.56, 6” for 300bo and 7.62x39 so you can get the velocity needed to make 5.56/223 work the way it’s supposed to.
