Red Dot for 480 Ruger
« on: February 16, 2006, 02:48:40 PM »
Was thinking of putting a red dot scope on my 480. Does anyone know of one that will withstand the recoil?

The Ultra-dot will. I have one on my 500 Mag with over 3000 rounds down the tube. Also the Ultra-dot Match-dot will. I have one on my 460 Mag. I have found that the Ultra-dot red-dots hold up well under the most powerful handguns. I have a third Ultra-dot match-dot for my Encore 460 Mag barrel that is coming. With the heavy recoil handguns, I have destroyed a Millet, Leupold Gilmore site and several old trashco's I had sitting around. Nothing holds like the Ultra-dot. This is hands on experience not what I read or what someone told me.  :D

I second that. I have an Ultra-Dot on my 45/70 Contender, holding up nicely and doing an excellant job.

I have a Bushnell Trophy on my SRH and like it.
