If you find yourself needing a "bigger dot for speed" you have a consistency in mounting the weapon problem, not a "muh dot" problem.

I guess that just makes too much damned sense.

I can't see the first picture, but the second one is golden.

The ring on the EOTech reticle has a couple things going for it. The "BDC" function is but one.

That's the best technical chart I've ever seen explaining the concept!!!

Bravo.

This is incorrect. The dot does not in fact change size, it's a question of how your eye perceives the dot.

It is unlikely that Aimpoint will produce a 1 MOA dot. I would not go so far as to say never...but very unlikely.

If you want more precision, turn the brightness down. The dot will appear smaller (as I previously posted it's not really but it will appear so to your eye).

Full disclosure: I work for Aimpoint as a Pro Staff member.

No, it is not incorrect.

When turned up to maximum, a "2moa" Aimpoint dot will cover more than 8" of a target at 100 yards to anybody's eye. I dont care what makes that happen internally. If it covers more that 8", it's over 2 moa. Period.

More importantly, for the purposes of the OP's desire for a smaller dot, what his eye perceives is ALL that matters.

I don't know, but to avoid argument, I'll grant that some fancy optical machine might measure the dot at 2moa and somehow see all but 2moa of the target, but again, that's irrelevant. If you're a human, you can turn the brightness up for a much larger dot, and down for a much smaller one.
