Best shotgun red dots for my money?

GIJeff · January 18, 2006, 02:15 PM

Shop'n for red dots to go on my slug gun lately I've been overwelmed with brands I've never heard of, and price ranges that aren't even in the same ballpark.

Can anyone make sense of this? All recommendations are welcome.
Thanks!!!:

I have a bear red dot scope on my remington 870 pump, with a fully rifled barrel.
It is great, accurate and cheap.

i have a ultra dot on a gp100. works great. very long battery life and it the best built of them all. the cheaper ones tends to rattle loose under heavy recoil. at about $135 not the cheapest but probably the best for the money in the long run.
