Recently purchased a Ruger PCC and am looking for suggestions for a red dot sight in the $125-225 range. The carbine is strictly a range “fun” gun. The steel targets will generally be between 40-50 meters. Looking for good quality optics and a good warranty should it go south. Also interested in trigger upgrades. Thanks, Tom

I've got 3 Sig Romeo 5s and they are extremely sturdy, well made devices.

Check out this torture test to see how reliable they are.

Flash - thanks for the recommendation, that’s the make and model I was looking at. Do you prefer a red or green dot? It looks like we live close to one another. I’m in North Phoenix, close to Ben Avery. Thanks again, Tom

Romeo 5 on mine and I like it a lot.

Red dot unless it's outside in brilliant light, then a green dot.

We're not really close if you're around Ben Avery. Looks to be around 60 miles or so.

Holosun Paralow HS503G Red Dot Sight - ACSS CQB Reticle.

This one has the Primary Arms reticle with holdovers for various ranges. Works with 5.56/.308/.300BLK/.22LR/9mm

For 9mm the chevron is 25-100 yards (25 at top, 100 bottom) then 150, 175, 200.

This may bring on some hate but,,

I run a Sitemark on my Ruger PCC. It offers both Green and Red allowing you to select during a match or range day. I've used it many times in Steel matches and it functions flawlessly. Normally, I'd run a Holosun but the Sitemark has been a champ. Considering the abuse a Ruger could run on a optic, I'm impressed. My .02 YMMV.

I'm now a big fan of Holosun. Great reticle and pricing on a solid product. I've got one for my Ruger Deerfield (44 mag semi auto carbine) and just put/sighted one on my M1 carbine (forward/scout mounted).

I have a Bushnell TRS-25 on my KT Sub2000 PCC and it works great. IIRC they are around $100

I went Vortex on my PCCs. One Crossfire red-dot (a best buy in my opinion), and a Spitfire AR 1X prism sight. I really like the prism best but the crossfire just works, and with the rheostat-type knob for operation and intensity just makes for a simple to operate unit.
Gotta love the lifetime warranty, as well!
The funny thing is that after using a set of Daniel Defense iron sights on one of my 9mm AR pistols I've come to prefer good old AR-type peep sights over the optics!
Oh well! Variety... spice of life...
FWIW!
