Default which red dot scopes for slugs?

Does anyone know if all red dot scopes made to work on shotguns?
Any specific model you guys recomend especialy for shoting slugs?
P.S.:will mount on a mossburg 500.
All feedback is apreciated.
Thanks

i can reccomend the BSA 42mm reddot but ive never used it one a shotgun, only my .357. i would use it on a shot gun if i had the need to though. i have no doubts about its ability to perform. though you might be a able to use a 30mm objective too. the 42 is almost too big for my .357

What about the Simmons Pro Diamond? Is it as good as a red dot? I am between getting a red dot or a Pro Diamond. My gun is a Mossberg 12, 835 Ulti Mag, 28 inch camo.
Thanks Joe

I have thought about getting one myself but didn't like how big the dots were past 25 yards. I finally saw one in the cabeloas christmas catalog with crosshairs instead of a 5moa dot. Might be getting one for my shotgun and maybe my .444 Marlin.

I got a Bushnell Trophy with 4 different reticles for my Remmington 870 SPS Slug gun about a month ago and so far I love it - my only worry about red dots is will battery die just as I am aiming at a deer ...

i have a simmons red dot scope i bought in one of those end of hunting sales through red head. cost me only $70.00 and has worked decent for me. i had it on my rem 1100 with a rifled barrel for 3 years. good out to about 75yds. kept the zero pretty good.
