Anybody Use a BSA Red Dot 30?
I just got one for my buckmark. Will try it out at the range on Saturday.

I have one on my Smith 22a. I like it a lot. I have it sighted in at 50 yards, usually shoot at 25 yards though.
I have one on my plinging rifles - mossberg 22lr, I will probally be putting my regular scope back on it as I don't feel comfortable with it on. Now I might have to buy something else to put it on. |

I've had this one on an MK II for a couple of years.
For $25, it seems to be a nice value. Joe

Not a bad dot for the price if you luck out and get a good one. The one I had several years ago wouldn't hold zero. (On a .22 auto!)

For my 12 year old daughter, I put one on my AR15 for plinking. We loves it.

.45-70
I have used one on my .45-70 Contender (14") It has held zero acceptably well, but in bright sunlight, the dot goes away (very hard to see), even at the highest setting.
