JPoint vs EoTech EXPS 2-0 or????

[Synergy]

Looking for a Red Dot for my AR pistol. I can get the JPoint and mount for just under 300 and the EXPS 2-0 for about 400. I have used other EoTechs and could get used to them. I have no experience with the Jpoint and have found very little about them though search.

I have also seen the Sightmark MiniShot and Burris Fastfire. Anyone using one. I don't mind spending money on a quality product. If something like the Sightmark is well made and hold up to AR use. I might consider one also.

One thing that i didnt like about the jpoint or fastfire is that in order to change the battery the whole thing has to be removed, replaced, then probably re-zeroed.

Edit: i just read a few posts down about the fastfire 3 with top loading battery. I think its a good idea.

The FastFire III will have a battery that can be changed without removing the optic.

I have a couple of EOTechs, and a FastFire II.

I like the size and weight of the FastFire II, and I REALLY like the reticle on the EOTech.

On the EOTech, the 65 MOA outer circle is really fast at closer ranges, and it can be used as a rangefinder of sorts - EOTech claims the average adult male stands 5' 8". At 100 yards, that man fills the 65MOA circle top to bottom. At 200 yards, half the circle, 300 yards, 1/3 of the circle, and 1/4 of the circle at 400 yards.

As well, with the girth of a whitetail at 16-18", at 25 yards, the distance from belly to spine fills the 65MOA circle. at 50 yards, half the circle, and at 100 yards, 1/4 of the circle.

On an AR, the bottom of the circle is 7 yards.
