Sure... why not?Should I Run My Hellcat Without an Optic?
I can't stand red dot sights on pistols, but I love a red dot or holographic sight with a 1 or 2 MOA dot on a rifle.

Here's a helpful link to better understand MOA.is that "minute" as a timed minute..??
or mi-nUte, as tiny adjustments..????
I partially agree to what you are saying but the average military personnel never even sees combat. The vast majority of the military plays a support role.no, not saying a former military is an expert, but they do shoot more than the average person in combat.....so don't they have "some knowledge" on how to set up a sight..??
Great explanation and easy to understand for all. This also explains how someone using a 6"MOA RDS to try to hit a 1" bullseye at 100yds just ain't going to work well.
If you're shooting at a 1" spot and there are no other aiming references, then yes it would be difficult. With other visual clues like the rings on a bullseye target, it makes little difference.Great explanation and easy to understand for all.

With all due respect MR. Thorgrim, what I wrote was if one is "using a 6"MOA RDS to try to hit a 1" bullseye at 100yds" .......... I didn't say anything about other visual clues, 3 MOA red dot, or even iron sights.
My imaginary scenario would be typical of some, primarily inexperienced with RDS's, who would take an 8" white paper plate out to a paced off 100 yds (maybe 100/maybe not), color in an approximate 1" bullseye in the center with a pencil or Sharpie pen, then try to hit it with his brand new RDS. Oh yeh, the one with the 6" (MOA) dot size.
When the hits just don't seem to come, and especially considering we've mounted our new RDS on a micro 9mm with a tiny 3" bbl, we all cry that the stupid red dot sight is just no good. With the situation as described, it might be typical to end up with a nominal 3"-5" group, but no one is likely to accept that as a quality sight system.
But you are absolutely correct in your assertion: "but you can still shoot minute-of-bad-guy with either." But that reality doesn't always satisfy the guy who just spent several hundred dollars for a new fangled RDS that didn't help him shoot bullseyes.
Everything in it's own place Thorgrim ...... everything in it's own place.
