It is also MUCH harder to hit small targets out past say 30-35yds. Another place that I noticed a significant learning curve with them is in command fire ball and dummy drills. The dot shows the SLIGHTEST movement that you would never even notice with iron sights. This of course is good and bad. If you are used to not having any issues with command fire ball and dummy drills and then have some, you start getting pissed at yourself. The good is that it will remove the slightest HINT of a flinch. The other thing about running a RDS is that it causes you to deal better with is your wobble zone. It is much more pronounced with a RDS and forces you to embrace it even more. So while the RDS causes you to lose some time on draw and fire drills, you basically OWN moving and shooting or shooting at a moving target. Since no one stands still in a gun fight, I accept the down sides of the RDS.

Did the size of the dot make it more difficult to get hits at 35 yds.?
