It is a great optic but I don’t think it will mount on the Hellcat OSP without modifying the gun .

I've had a SIG Romeo 0 micro red dot with the Hellcat footprint on back order since January and am getting impatient. I can't believe the other optic makers haven't noticed the trend towards putting micro red dots on pistols and out wowing each others optics while raking in the cash. Four months I'm waiting and SIG cannot build the Romeo 0 fast enough to ever have it not be on back order. Anywhere. What am I missing?
I have the 4moa smsc on my HC but can only shoot out to 25y because of a medical condition. With that in mind I’d rather have the bigger dot especially because the 4moa gets lost occasionally outside during the day.
Keep us updated I really like Vortex stuff. Will it co-witness with stock sights?

3 moa is plenty you are shooting a pistol with limited range for defense. 3 MOA at 200 yards 200*3=600/100=6 so 3 MOA is equal to 6″ at 200 yards, 4 MOA at 300 yards 300*4=1200/100= 12″ so 4 MOA is equal to 12″ at 300 yards. The math works with and distance and any MOA measurement. It even works for distances under 100 yards. So let’s say 1 MOA at 25 yards. Take 25*1=25/100 equals 1/4″. It’s really that simple. Understanding this comes in handy for long-range rifle shooting.
Converting inches to MOA is just as simple as converting MOA to inches. It’s just in reverse. So as an example:
2″ at 100 yards is equal to 2 MOA. It works like this (2″/100)*100=2, 4″ at 400 yards is equal to 1 MOA (4″/400)*100=1
6″ at 250 yards is equal to 2.4 MOA (6/250)*100=2.4

4 MOA is equal to 12″ at 300 yards.

Here is a pic of my Springfield XDM OSP with the SightMark mini shot pro the Vortex Venom 3 MOA Red Dot I ordered for my Hell Cat OSP is on backorder so I might purchase the red dot from Springfield Armory Direct . its 99 dollars more and I won't have to wait for it.
Anyone hear of any mini reflex red dot sights coming from Optic Factory in Oregon for the Hellcat OSP ??

As I understand it the mini red dot that fits directly on the Hell Cat OSP is the SHIELD SMSC MICRO RED DOT - 4 M.O.A. sold in the Springfield Armory Store. I had ordered the vortex venom but returned it because I was told its for the XDM OSP and not the Hell Cat . https://store.springfield-armory.com/Shop/pc/Shield-SMSc-Micro-Red-Dot-4-M-O-A-292p1954.htm

Hi Andrew, I ordered the SMSc by accident because I got excited when the Shield was in stock and didn't even realize I did not order the RMSc. Since you have both, should I return my SMSc? I want something durable!I just checked Brownell’s because they had a shipment of RMSC’s but they’re out of stock again now. So I have the SMSC from Springfield and I like it but I also ordered the RMSC for my other hellcat. I ordered from Shield’s website. It took about 2 -3 weeks for a shipping label to be created but it’s finally coming ! Will probably be about 6 weeks from the date of purchase.
But it’s only 300 Euros
( about 380)
