I might have reached the limit of the iron sights on my .454 7.5" SRH. At around 80 yds it seems the 12" steel plate goes into hiding. I have a neighbor that can get me good pricing on Leupold so I have been considering the VX 3 handgun scope 2.5-8X. I feel it's more than I really need, all I want is something that gives me a crisp aiming point without too much magnification. So the FX II at 4x seems way too much. Actually even 2.5 seems a little bit too much. So I started looking at the Deltapoint Pro. Leupold says it's been tested in their recoil machine that generates 3 x the energy of a 308 ~ 54 ft-lbs/36fps (Rifle Recoil Table - Sortable) vs 39ft-lbs/28fps (Handgun Recoil Table).
Anyone with experience of both scope and red dot on a larger revolver to share?
