Thread: Different Sizes of MRDS Windows

  1. #11
    You won’t notice window size making a difference if you’re just doing standing two handed shooting a static target directly in front of you. The moment any movement, transitions, lighting, or varied shooting positions come into play, window size absolutely matters.

    Tall or wide is mostly a theoretical discussion, since as a practical matter, the tall ones are also pretty wide and vice versa.
    Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.

    I thought I preferred round but then I started using a 507Comp and I think I prefer it with the 8 MOA horseshoe over my SRO's. Bonus is that it seems to ghost less than the SRO. My buddy at work that I shoot with prefers round. Even on the ACE VR game he went back to the SRO after trying the 507Comp. I stayed with the Comp.

    A day or so before I posted this, I had asked Sig C/S what the optic window size(s) of the Romeo X Pro and Compact were; today they came back and confirmed they were the same.

    Thing is though, they indicated "24 mm", which is weird because this is almost an inch by an inch (1" = 25.4 mm). I put a 24 mm x 24 mm box at the bottom of my chart, thusly:

    Does anyone actually have a Romeo X, and if so, can you see where a 24 mm opening would fit into the optic? I think there's something I don't understand about Sig's answer here...thanks!

    Romeo-X Compact: Front window 20.64mm wide x 15.64mm tall at the highest point. So, 0.81”w x 0.62”t.

    Thanks Ken.

    Seems odd that Sig indicates the window size is 24 mm...maybe they applied some marketing windage to the actual glass size. Thanks for the numbers though, it helps.

    Could that be the size of the housing surrounding the glass? If so, that’s an incredibly misleading way to sell an optic.
