    4 MOA dot on left, 2 MOA dot on right . . .








    ....

    For me it all depends what I'm using the sight for. If I'm running CQB out to 200m I actually prefer the 4MOA dot as it's very good for quick pickup in those less than optimal cheek weld/sight picture situations we called SOP.

    Isn't the 4MOA dot actually something like 3.8 MOA?

    I haven't found that dot size changes acquisition for me comparing my PRO to my T-1. Brightness does, though. I do feel like I get better accuracy with the smaller dot size.

    This is exactly what I've found as well... That said I won't be giving my T-1 4MOA away anytime soon, still a great red dot, but 2MOA is the way to go on virtually all applications.

    3.2, according to someone from Aimpoint (see this post).

    The 4 MOA on left, 2 MOA on right. No tricks or anything, both placed in the same spot in front of the lens, both shot at the same focus point, both on setting 7 to try to get more of the dot than any bloom. Just click for the full-sized version of each.

    And again, 4 MOA on left, 2 MOA on right.

    And to show I'm not crazy...

    Huh, I can really tell the difference, even if I run the 2MOA brighter.

    I have both and I cannot tell the difference between the two as well.
