I’m new to ‘Red-Dot’ scope’s, and I’ve asked many questions about ‘MOA’ designation but never got a really concise, or meaningful explanation until now. This is by-far the best explanation of ‘MOA’ I’ve ever seen. Thank you very much. “OUTSTANDING!”

by far one of the best VISUAL explanations for MOA sizes. I'm buying a red dot for my M&P 40L C.O.R.E and was waiting for the VORTEX VIPER to be released. I'm not expecting to use it for anywhere near /past 100 yards but wasn't sure if the 6 MOA would be too large of a dot. Thanks for the additional info /insight.

This does clear things up a bit. I have seen a video stating that the dots are identical sizes which I can confirm but other people state there is a difference even at close range. You don't want to spend all that money for something and get the wrong dot size that suits you. As long as the 2MOA will fulfil any requirement for static target shooting that is fine for me.

It depends on what you are doing when deployed or state side. Mostly kicking in doors is not 75 to 100 meters or yards. I prefer the 2 MOA for offense, defense, or even hunting. Everything I do will be within 100 yards. If I need to reach out further, I have a solution for that too 😏. Good video brother.

Or simply go with an Eotech style reticle and you have the 2MOA dot for long range and the 65MOA circle for CQB, can't really mess up that decision.

+imstricken06 I very much agree, my point was to go with something with that sight picture, not the actual eotech sight. I much prefer the eotech style sight picture over a single red dot for CQB and I think I found a solution..... I just ordered one of the new Sig Sauer optics, the Romeo 4M, and will be running it through its paces. I was able to see these at Shotshow 2016 and was very impressed. If it turns out to be good quality, which I don't doubt it at all coming from them, then it'll be some serious competition since you can get one for around $350-$400. The benefit with these is MOTAC system, which increases battery life by 10X, and the ability to switch between a 2MOA red dot and the eotech style 65MOA circle with 2MOA dot. Should be a fun test!

Nice instructional video BUT don't forget that the average-Joe shooter would have a hard time engaging a sedentary target (given environmental and physiological variables) at 300 yards much less a headshot. Our unit had standard issued 4moa sights and they were mostly used in CQB situations (50yrds or less). They guys taking the longer-shots(designated marksmen and sniper-types) were not using red dot sights! 4MOA sights are used effectively by infantry men worldwide...its the civilian-types that are stuck on 4vs2vs1 MOA....a good marksman will split your melon at 300yards with iron sights. IMHO, buy a nice set of sights (at a good price) and practice the fundamentals of marksmanship FIRST then worry about target acquisition out past 100yrds....the zombies won't be worth the bullet past that mark. lol.

Thanks, Finally, first discussion I have found on the topic. I have a holosight on my AR, ! moa dot, and can't understand why the 2moa and 4moa. I can see my dot no problem. And my eyes aren't young. At 50 yards I dim my dot to a pinprick and can shoot holes touching holes. brighten it up for quick acquisition. Is it more expensive to manufacture a small dot as compared to a beach ball? Thanks

Trying to make a choice for first red dot right now, this was good visual food for thought! Any drawback to just zeroing a standard round dot for POI at the apex/top of the circle, similar to how you're describing your use of the triangular style? In other words, using like a 6:00 hold instead of center hold?

Eric D I really like my set up. I have a Troy rifle with an aimpoint pro (2 moa) and a vortex 3x magnifier behind it, that I can move to the side. I would think that if you want to see lots of bullseyes than get 2moa. If you zero your rifle at 50 yards that means you'll be zero at 50 and at 200. Most outdoor ranges I know dont go past 200 yards.

This is not the correct way to aim with a red dot. You should use it like an iron sight, meaning your point of aim is the top of the dot, which makes the 4 MOA dot just as precise as a 2 MOA dot. There really is no benefit to using a 2 MOA over 4 MOA dot size, unless you are using it wrong or have the eye sight of an Eagle.

Better understanding of 4 verse 2 Moa but still confused on which one I should get I'm thinking CQB but at the same time what if I have to engage a Target at 200-300 yards would the 2 Moa be a better choice overall. I mean a 12in circle is really big vs a 6in circle. If anybody can help out. My question I guess is, is a 2 MOA effective in CQB and going with a 2 moa be a good choice considering I might have to engage targets at a further distance?

Brian Reynolds 4moa is great for cqb. But it’s a big dot at 200 yards. It’s 8” wide. The dimmer you make it the smaller it appears. With smaller dots the brighter it is the larger it appears. I have shot the 4moa Aimpoint h2 on a 14.5” ar15 and put 3 rounds within a 1” box at 50yards. I simply dimmed it down some. At 100yd that would be a 2” group. At 300yd that would be a 3” group. Etc. not bad at all.

Brian Reynolds I typically stay away from magnified optics for cqb. It makes for a pain in the balls. Try it in store. Go to cabelas and try out an optic and do fast point and shoots and you will see why most magnified optics have 45degree offset irons or smaller red dots for quick engagements.
