Buy recommendations Dots vs astigmatism (advice request)
I have a gnarly astigmatism that impacts my ability to use dots. I've tried etched reticle prisms, but the ones in my budget are too bulky for my shotgun. I need something relatively small and low-profile.
I'm considering the PA x1 microprism with the green dot, but haven't seen reviews of it from people with astigmatism. Does anyone have advice on this unit?
I'm trying to keep my budget sub $400, which is why I'm not looking at fancy closed emitters or holographics. I don't have an Eotech wallet.

Have pretty bad stigma and these are great for that. Used a 3x magnifier with it and it worked pretty well
