Buy recommendations Red dot recommendations

Looking for a red dot for my tm22 pro.

I see the vortex crossfire is on sale for 180$. Still seems a little pricey for the features that it comes with. Open to some recommendations if you guys have any!

Crossfire is a great red dot for a reasonable price IMO. I have a few of them. Vortex did just come out with an even more budget friendly version, the Triumph, which is around 160$. A Bushnell TR-25 is also a decent option if you are looking for something budget.

Thanks it's not really about the price. I like the idea of the auto on and off though may get the triumph just for this reason.

I'd consider the Trash-25 the minimum, but if you can afford a Vortex, a SIG dot, or a Holosun 403, they're better and most of them have lifetime warranty as opposed to 1 year from Bushnell.

But they're fundamentally the same product of "floating red dot in a tube". If you have really bad astigmatism the dot will look weird, so look into 1x prisms if that's going to bother you.
