I have a vortex venom and a bushnell first strike. Best thing is when your twisted like a pretzel on a shot it will hit where you have the red dot from those awkward positions. I think that’s a great advantage as opposed to trying to login up fiber sights

Bushnell trs-25. Best one for $50 bucks. Looks great and shoots well of my daughter's 20.

I've never looked at a Venom. What makes them better than a FF3? Will they fit the Marlin 336 base? Thanks

I like the glass a little better on a venom. I like the controls and adjustments better. It has a different, more square shape than the fastfire which (to me) gives a lot bigger sight picture. It doesn’t give off that horrible copper colored glow from the front like a fastfire does either. And yes it fits on a 336 base. I had never tried the venom til last year but I like it way way better than a fastfire.

That's one of the features I like best, turn it on and forget about it. The Holosite I used for several years had to be constantly reset manually. It never cost me a turkey, but came close.

Yes but they have way more than just 3 settings, which I like a lot better. Lots of times the FF3 would be either too dim or too bright to suit me.

Ok, y'all have pretty much talked me into buying one. I'm about to roll out a new gun and was thinking of robbing the FF off of another gun, but I'll just try to sell it with the FF on it.
