If the reflex red dot is 4-MOA without magnification, it will remain 4-MOA with magnification. Holographic sights feature a more precise sub-MOA central aiming dot.įlip-up magnifiers will magnify the red dot or reticle of a reflex sight just as you would expect. The central aiming dot of reflex sights is typically limited to 2-MOA or larger. Holographic sights use laser-illumination to display a reticle with a central aiming dot. Reflex sights use collimated LED light to display an aiming dot or reticle with an aiming dot. For many years, reflex sights only came in varying sizes of dots, however recently, some reflex sights have begun to also feature reticles. Holographic sights feature complex reticles with markings for wind and drop holds. Reflex vs holographic sights at longer ranges

Precision: At longer distances, red dots provide a more precise aiming point than iron sights.

Speed: putting the dot on the target is simpler and faster than establishing iron sight alignment and sight picture.

Forgiving: reflex sights permit a much great range of eyeball placement behind the gun than iron sights.

Both eyes open: shooting with both eyes open is far easier with a red dot sight, and both eyes open means greater situational awareness.

Focus on the target: unlike iron sights which require you to focus on the front sight post, with a red dot sight, you focus on the target.
