I have decided to go with the Holosun 307C-X2.
Excellent choice. Holosun is definitely an up and comer when it comes to RDS.

I live in a metroplex of 6 million people. Nobody has a picatinny mount for that red dot. I had to order it on Amazon.

Yeah, I’m thinking if you can’t find something in The Dallas/ FT Worth metropolis, you ain’t finding it in any other city either.
When I was shooting the other day, I was shooting a rifle with a Holosun red dot and another with a Vortex, and noticed how much better the Holosun looked. Not that Vortex is bad; but their red dots vary and I like Vortex best for their scopes.
But yeah, Holosun is solid. I would consider getting another one if the need arises.

Good video.
Informative video. I built a very similar gun to the one that’s on the table for that whole video. A bunch of Tandemkross parts too. And a red dot.
Where do you guys place your red dots on the rails of your competition .22 pistol’s?
Do you prefer them towards the back of the pistol close to the rear iron sights? Or more forward, towards the muzzle?
My dot is set up and ready to be sighted in at the range.

I have mine set towards the rear on both my Mk II and MK III 22/45. The Burris mount on the Mk II uses the rear sight dovetail, so the RDS has to be towards the rear, the Tandemkross mount on the Mk III has a little flexibility in positioning, but not much, so the RDS is still to the rear. A rail would allow a more forward position, but also adds height to the sighting system. Given the option, I like the rear placement and lower profile.

Almost touching the rear sight. Works well for me.
Gotta order some NRA B-2 and 3’s and Houston will be a go for launch.
If you have a printer that works... The first post in this bullseye session thread has pdfs of both of these targets. Print them at 100% and you get perfect targets.Gotta order some NRA B-2 and 3’s and Houston will be a go for launch.
I'll give it a try.
I like mine centered on the upper receiver. I take the sights off when I install the red dot. I haven’t put an optic on my buckmark. Think I’m going to keep the sights on that one.
I gotta admit, I have old eyeballs and I was impressed with the standard sights on the Buckmark. Hopefully the dot produces even better accuracy.
Yep, the sights on my buckmark are excellent. But I got that Smith specifically to mod. Even though it had the green fiber optic sights out of the box, I still yanked them. And I replaced the barrel anyways. It was the intent of the project. But the fiber optic sights are excellent as well.
Next step for the Smith is to get the tandemkross mount for that red dot. I also want to do a trigger job for the anesthetics. But the stock trigger is already really great, so I'm on the fence.
Does your S&W have a magazine disconnect? My Buckmark does. I wonder if the disconnect affects trigger pull?
