Title: Which red dot for cz85
Post by: CADDIE5 on February 03, 2016, 04:16:13 PM: Have springer precision mount ordered. Which red dot- vortex venom or Burris Fastfire3-your thoughts. Don't want to spend $$ for trijicon RMR. For ccw and hunting protection from coyotes during deer archery season. Thanks Steve

I am happy with it so far. I got the 8 moa dot.

It doesn't make me a good shooter. :P

I bought mine at Primary Arms but they are Out of Stock now.

Post by: staggsofdryvalley on April 12, 2016, 07:16:38 PM: the wife wanted to try one "fastfire 3" on her 85C , she got a little nervous when I took the hammer to her new gun though ???
ironically we got her her own 85c because apparently we don't shoot at the same aiming point .

I was shooting my 527 the other day and brought her gun along to pass time while the 204 barrel cooled .

set up a target 7 yards away and shortly after 50 shots turned into one 2" hole :)

theres an 8" swinging target I thought I would try for at a known 50 yards and hit it 50% and the other were close , cool !

even managed a few hits at 75 yards , couldn't find the elevation at 100 though .
