red dot or scope for mini-14

[jimbos44]

I've had bothon my mini, but cant decide which one to use as primary. quick shooting short range red dot or the accuracy of a scope?

I use a 1 to 4X scope - Weaver makes a very short 1 to 3X too. I've just never adjusted to the red dots, they're either hard to see or splashy or cover too much of the target for me.

Millet DMS 1-4, or Mark AR 1-4 or something like. Best of both worlds.

Yeah, I would say a 1-4 also. Simple duplex reticle and you'll be good out to 250 yards or so.
