Got that right, especially knowing it's for close in, fast shooting, which is why I designed the 450b concept for, in the first place. But, I could use the "Strike Eagle's" (An Ed Verdugo, knockoff-909=917-8316, say I sent you) round circle on low power, say something around a 1x, on a charging Griz. If the circle fills up with brown, you better pull the trigger and keep pulling (assuming you have a adequate sight solution), to stop the charge, because you are about to become scat!!
At the time of the 450b inception, I was Guiding in Alaska. You can become to reason why I might need such a weapon/sight!! My puny 30-06 just didn't seem like quite enough, under those conditions..
Ed Verdugo can give you much better insight into that sight, he is a Green Beret Sniper, and his, is far cheaper/better too!! We exhaustively tested the Verdugo scope and found it in creditably useful having the additional benefit of being able to hit smaller targets much further out. It is however, caliber/BC specific.
But, I love the fire dot as well. But, but, because of the "Fast and Furious" stuff, I am fine with a standard reticle sighted in for two hundred yards again with maybe a 1-6x set on the lowest setting, all for fast/dangerous work.
Now, a little about me..
I'm in Idaho, with my wife, who is a traveling "RN". I am on the mend from several accidence I had is DEC., with corresponding hospital stays (3x times). I fell and tore up my rib cage and shoulder. I'm having a good day, hence my participation here. But until, I heal I won't be up here/on-line much.
I should be back in MI, on the Range, sometime in April..

PS.. I did fly South to Vegas for a ten day stay with my Daughter, in Vegas! The weather was in the 70's...Nah-Nah..t
