I'm looking to get a red dot sight for my Savage Axis .223. I have never bought or used one before, so this is totally new to me. Do you guys prefer the open style or tube style? I'm going to get a cheap one first to see what I think of them before I go spending a good deal of money on one. I am looking at an AIM Sports RT4-01, an open one which seems to have good reviews, or the Leapers SCP-RD40RGW, a tube style which also seems to have good reviews, but seems to not be able to decide who is manufacturing them for the company. They are both sub $40.
Amazon.com either way. I'm also getting a different scope rail, as it is needed, but I've already decided on that.
Thanks for the help.
Also, the reason I am going with a red dot is because it is the closest I can get to iron sights without having them installed by a gunsmith. I don't like scopes and never have.
