Thread: RMR/SRO auto vs manual

  1. #11
    The 2.5 in auto is really too small for me.

    And here is a 5 on the left and 2.5 on the right, against the kind of background that is hard on auto.

    Just got a SRO 2.5 to try out. Have a RMR06 v2 on my carry gun.

    The RMR auto adjustment seems a lot smarter and faster than the SRO auto adjustment. Some of the easy initial tests I've tried leave the SRO dot barely visible, where the RMR is usable.

    I wonder if that is firmware, and if Trijicon could update it, if they make changes?

    That was my experience as well. Thought the RMR seemed better than the SRO.
    The stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me.

    Humbly improving with CZ's.

    SRO 5 auto adjust update

    Unfortunately I have to agree with some previous comments to the effect that:

    1) SRO auto adjust does seem less smooth/quick/reliable than RMR T2.

    2) Different types of lighting seem to affect it differently, e.g. sunlight and incandescent make it track great but it seems to not respond (brighten) as well to other indoor lighting.

    Need to test more.

    Not sure whether it's different firmware or maybe the different frame shape shades the sensor differently? Not sure why Trijicon would change something that ain't broke. Unless the SRO is such a "sport specific" optic that it's somehow optimized for outdoor match lighting?

    Unfortunately I anticipate all we'd get from Mother Trijicon is "send it in and we'll check it out." Anyone have an inside source?

    I locked my SRO at 2 clicks down from max. The lock did stick and while sometimes it’s slightly bright it’s never invisible!

    Used it at the range today for the first time and that big window is great for letting my eye focus on the target area without obstruction from the RMR frame and BUIS.

    Manual/Lock-in mode always for me. 2 clicks down from max illumination.

    What is your battery life at that setting?

    Haven’t had a battery die on me yet in any of my SROs, but I swap the battery every 3 months on all of mine whether I leave them on or not.

    The SRO on my 4” Compact M&P 2.0 stays on that setting always.

    My current duty 4.25” M&P 2.0 CORE gets shut off at the end of my shift.

    Three is a relief, because while 2 may be 1 with an RMR, with a SRO 3 is 1. You do drop your pistols on boulders every shift, right?
