I have noticed that many of you use Ultra Dots with good results. I'm just curious which models you are using. I'm thinking about putting one on my 45-70 BFR. Shipping FedEx Ground keeps a small business running. "I'm not late, I'm early for tomorrow." | ||

Ultra dots are used by target shooters because the dot does not lose its shape when you increase the intensity, and the dot is small. I am not sure about their reputation for withstanding high recoil. Peter. Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee.

Before I bought mine, I called Magnum Research and they told me the Ultra Dot is one of the few that would stand up to the recoil of the .475. I now have two, one on the 45-70 also and have not had a single problem. My tightest groups have been shot with them and many deer have fallen with them. | |||

I also use the Aimpoints....I was told Smith/Wesson has one on a 500 Smith testgun with over 5000 test rounds fired,still working fine! Mine has several hundred heavy loads ,no problems and now its on the 50/110 and so far,so good!

Aimpoints are great and I considered some until I seen the prices. Tough to do when retired. | |||

I'm in the same boat. At the last weekend's gunshow I picked up a 460 S&W with Ultra Dot. As I had never heard of it before I was wondering how well they stand up to recoil. Third rebirth of member #117. | |||

If not mistaken, I think Ultra Dot was the first red dot. They stand up great and after over 1000 rounds each on my .475 and 45-70 BFR's they are still dead on and I have had Zero problems. My tightest groups have been shot with them. | |||

I use the Ultra-dot match-dot. I have one on my 500 Mag BFR and one on a S&W 460 Mag. Works great with over 2000 rounds fired in the 500 Mag. I have blow out, Bushnell's, Millet, Aim-point and Leupold Gilmore on my 500 Mag. The Ultra dot is the only one I found that will held up. If you're going to make a hole, make it a big one.

Thanks for the help. The Ultra Dots look like an amazing deal for being so tough. It almost seems to good to be true. Shipping FedEx Ground keeps a small business running. "I'm not late, I'm early for tomorrow." | |||
