Tried my Optimizer
Got my new HHA Optimizer set up finally, thought Id share my thoughts.
The green fiber optic site pin is great, no halo effect, and at dusk was visable, but dim enough not to steal my back light. The verticle pin will take a little getting used to, but im sure that will come with time. I really like the slide so far, its easy to move, but stays in place even when its thumb screw is left loose. I havent played with the micro adj yet, so ill have to wait and see on that. The windage adjustments require a wrench on the model I have, but now that its set shouldnt need to be touched. I have done some 20 yd indoor shoots with it, but now that the snow is gone I can get outside and start having fun at the longer distances.
