I can understand an RDS, as they are pretty small. And a receiver sight is the best all-around for ruggedness and precision
IMHO of course.


Yeah, I kind of feel that way too, but my eyes cant focus with any kind of irons anymore.

I went with a Prostaff 2-7 but this year think I'll up it to a Leupold 2-7, which I think better of, or mebbe a 1-4
