multi power red dot sight for .44 mag Contender?
« on: August 31, 2012, 01:51:12 PM »
Is there a 2 or 3 power Holo sight or red dot sight that will stand up to the recoil of a 10 inch .44 mag  Contender, that doesn't cost over a couple hundred dollars?

You are looking at a big bark there if you are shooting CCI law mans special . I would not even think of useing a red dot on that kicker. Go with something like redfield base and rings and there are scopes out there that wil handle the recoil. This is just my opinion from my experience.

Vortex recently came out with a red dot with a 2 power magnifier (Strikefire II) that as I recall is in that price range.  Other than seeing the description on their website don't know anything about it.  Seems I've seen good comments on other Vortex optics, may want to see if you can find some actual use comments or call them and see if it would work on a .44 mag.
