One last detail I want to mention in this category is that you can get the 507c with a red reticle or with a green reticle (the green dot model is called the HE507C-GR)… In the end, all 3 reticle choices that come with the MRS have their strengths and weaknesses, but as I said my favorite is the Circle Dot reticle. It’s very fast because your eye picks up the 32 MOA ring very quickly, but because there is no dot in the center, you’re able to see your entire target… Personally this is my least favorite option, but a lot of folks out there really like it… Last, you get the 32 MOA ring with no dot in the center option. This is a great option if you want to keep things simple because your eye can still pick up the dot pretty quickly, and you still have that small 2 MOA dot aiming point… That being said, you also get the 2 MOA dot option, which I also like… So I think it’s the best of both worlds, and I really like it. …which gives you precision when you’re aiming at small targets or targets that are off in the distance.
The big 32 MOA ring is very quick for your eye to pick up which translates to you shooting faster, but at the same time you still have that small 2 MOA dot in the center… I love it… It’s pretty much my favorite reticle on this style of optic because it does everything well… Let’s start by discussing the 2 MOA ( minute of angle) dot with a 32 MOA ring surrounding it, which is also called the Holosun Circle Dot Reticle…
A 32 MOA Ring with no dot in the center. A 2 MOA dot with a 32 MOA ring surrounding it (The Holosun Circle Dot). Basically, this feature means that you get 3 different reticles that you can choose between on your optic (the Holosun 407c just has 1 reticle). Now as for the reticle, the 507c has a feature called the MRS or Multiple Reticle System. It doesn’t have much of a distinct blue tint the way some other optics do (like the Trijicon RMR), and overall, you get a very clean sight picture when looking through the optic… Winner: Holosun 507c Lens Clarity And Reticle… Holosun 507c So in this category, the clear winner is the Holosun 507c… On the other hand, the Vortex Venom has a much thinner aluminum housing and doesn’t have the reputation for durability that the Holosun has. It also has a reputation as one of the toughest miniature reflex sights you can get… As I mentioned above, the Holosun 507c has a very thick sight housing, and it really is built like a tank… The big difference is in the amount of material used in the sight housing. They’re both waterproof and shockproof, and they both have windage and elevation turrets that are recessed into the sight housing… They are both made from high quality aluminum…. All in all, the Venom is also a pretty durable miniature reflex sight… Durability And Toughness Conclusions…Īlright, so on paper both of these sights have a lot in common when it comes to their construction. On top of that, the Venom is also shockproof and can handle being mounted on a pistol slide…Īnd it has a tough, scratch resistant coating on the lens, which Vortex calls ArmorTek. So it can handle rainy conditions without any issues at all. In addition to that, the windage and elevation turrets are recessed into the sight housing…Īnd it’s also waterproof. For starters, the sight housing is made from 7075 T6 Aluminum, so it’s very robust…Īnd it also has an anodized finish which will help protect the optic from the elements. The Holosun 507c is a very durable little optic. Let’s start by taking a look at the durability of these two little red dot sights… Durability And Toughness… Holosun 507c In the end, I’ll tell you if I personally prefer the 507c or the Venom, and you should have a clear idea as to which one will work best for you… Extra Accessories Included With The Optic. So in this Holosun 507c vs Vortex Venom comparison, we’re going to put these two little optics up against each other and see how they stack up in the following 6 categories… The Vortex Venom ( Check Price On Amazon – Over 2,560 Reviews). The Holosun 507c ( Check Price On Amazon – Over 415 Reviews). Two of the companies that seem to be getting things right when it comes to optics are Holosun and Vortex, and right now, two of their most popular models for this style of sight are… They’re being mounted on pistol slides because they help you shoot faster and more accurately, and they even have a role as a super compact sight on carbines as well…Īnd because they’re so popular, more and more companies are starting to produce these mini red dots… Miniature reflex sights are becoming more popular these days, and it’s easy to see why…
