Any of you guys running a red dot on your NEF? I was wondering what kind and if you could post a pic. Thanks! :icon_thumright:

I also have used a trueglo on my nef. I shot over 100 loads of all kinds of turkey shot with it on and  NO PROBLEMS WHAT-SO-EVER.  I did have the gun drilled and taped and now have a bushnell trophy scope on it but only because of preference. They must be made good to take all that recoil and still be as good as new. Good luck and good huntin!!

Don't have any pics but I'm using an Aimpoint 9000SC on my NEF SB2 and I love mine.  Super nice optics.  I left the switch on accidentally for 4 months and the batteries are still going strong.  Supposed to have a 5000 hour life on the batteries.

I am a believer in the Aimpoint, myself. I have them on two of my rigs. A benelli SBE l and a BPS 10ga. They rock..Mike :you_rock:

Are you using just two mounting holes on that rail?

yes I am only using the front two holes of a ruger 10/22 one piece mount, and it is rock solid

I've got an aimpoint on mine. It works really well.

I did the mount like big peck said , But after 5 nitros I took a tru glo to the head, I had the other 2 holes drilled and tapped on the mount and dont worry anymore.

I use a Burris fastfire II with a marlin 336 mount on the rear set of factory holes. I did drill the holes bigger to the 8/40 size and tapped them.
