I use an RMR on my double rifles. Used it on my Heym .500 nitro to kill my first Buffalo. On a rifle, it's WAY faster than iron sights and come up VERY fast on target.

The only glitch I've experienced with them is that you need to bend the battery contacts out just a bit to make sure there is positive contact otherwise the red dot can become flaky and does a disappear/reappear act on you. It's an easy fix but an important one if you expect 100% reliability. The battery on the one on my .500 is still going strong and has been in use since 2014!!!!!

I did have a bad experience this past fall when another RMR on a Blaser K95 unbeknownst to me, filled with snow and when I tried to shoot a fast moving buck I found no joy!!

Other than the snow event, I gotta lotta love for those RMRs. I really like the 3.5moa flavour in particular and have nearly a dozen of them mounted on various rifles. I have been trying a 1 moa version on my .375 flanged double and find it very useful for more precisely aimed shots although it is a bit fine for ultra fast sight acquisition.
