Vortex Venom Red Dot Top Load 3 MOA Reflex Sight

[SensiSi]

Afternoon all. Had to re-register as I've been absent for a couple of years(ish). Just wondering if anyone has tried the above sight. I've dusted off my Brocock Atomic .177, that currently wears an old Hawke reflex, but I was never really happy with the adjustment setup on it. So i'm looking to replace with a better, but not extortionately priced unit.

Hi, I have one mounted on the Weihrauch HW44 and it's performed very well.

It's well made, easy to mount and sits very low on the gun. The adjustment is great, although I find the auto brightness mode always seems to get it wrong so I do it manually, not a big deal.

It's easy to adjust and keeps zero no problems at all.

It comes with a bullet proof warranty and good customer service so to be honest I would just buy it!

Cheers

Lewis

I have the Hawke Reflex dot on my Glock (5moa?) and it works fine, had it on a rifle before that.
I wanted something a little more precise for my .22 so spent ages looking for a Vortex Venom, but there were none around. In one shoo I found this Geco open reflex with a 2 moa dot. It is tiny and the dot is fantastic, best of all was the price, just €180

SensiSi,

As an aside, most of the higher end reflex sights are designed to natively fit Picatinny rails, rather than the 11mm dovetails common on air rifles/pistols.

For a lost less than the £250+ the Vortex Venom costs, I have used the below sight on my HW45 for many months, with no complaints (it is a 3 MOA dot) :
