Which red Dot for my Turkey Shotgun?

[Hobbs4421]

I have a budget of around $150- $200 and I want to get a red dot sight.
I am looking for the following:
Excellent battery life
Easy to sight in
Durable
And of course, Accurate

What would you recommend, and why?

Thanks, Isaac

Holosun circle dot micro

Known durability

Aimpoint like battery life

Circle dot reticle for shotgun use

I don't think you need more than a 1x on top of a shotgun. I have a cheap $50 "Red Head" (Bass Pro house brand) 1x on mine. It gets the job done and if I destroy it, meh, it was only $50.

I just checked out the Holosun sights and I now have my eye on the H5510C. It has everything I'm looking for an then some. Ridiculous battery life! It is $100 more than I want to pay. I may go for it anyway. I like the solar option, because if my battery happens to die, it seems like I would still be able to finish my hunt because of that feature. Thanks for the input!

I've got the HS503C, I plan on putting it on my Benelli. My biggest concern with cheap optics is the ability to hold zero, especially on something with as much recoil as a shotgun. I've helped other people trying to zero their shotgun with a cheap scope, and in every case it was hopeless because the scope just wouldn't hold zero.

I'm not sure how well it'll do, though reports say it'll work just fine on a shotgun. It seems to me like they're in the price of cheap enough to afford, expensive enough to not suck.

Take a look at slickguns (or guns.deals) to see if there's any Holosuns for sale. I got mine for around $150 after coupon. Truglo also rebrands some Holosun red dots. I've seen them go for very close to $100, though it seems like those are based on the older HS4xx generation.

Holosun makes a all around good optic but if your budget isn't up that high check out the Romeo 5.

$139.99 plus $7.00 flat rate shipping.

Thanks guys! I'll continue researching. I noticed I made an error above. I meant HS510C no H5510C, Thanks again!

I think this has been said before, but I'm convinced despite lack of written proof that the Sig Romeo 5 is just a Holosun 403GL wearing a Batman/Stealth like housing skin.

Even the packaging from both units are like a 95% match. If you watch the reviewer in the video when he unboxes the unit, compare that to my box below for my HS503

Vortex Viper/Venom RDS is a good and low pro choice.
