Trijicon RMR HD 1 MOA Dot 55 MOA Reticle Superb Sight

Description

The Trijicon RMR HD 1 MOA Dot 55 MOA Reticle is Trijicon’s answer to a question shooters have argued about for years: big dot or small dot. This optic lets you choose, and change your mind, because the reticle is selectable. A precise one minute dot on its own, or that same dot inside a fifty five minute segmented circle. Part RMHD1-C-3200001.

One Optic, Two Sight Pictures

A one minute dot is the most precise aiming point you can have in a reflex sight. It covers a quarter of an inch at twenty five yards, so on a partial target or small steel you can see exactly where the round is going. What it is not is fast to find under pressure.

Switch the Trijicon RMR HD 1 MOA Dot 55 MOA Reticle to the circle and the picture changes completely. Fifty five minutes of angle is an enormous ring, impossible to miss and impossible to lose in recoil, and the small dot still sits at its centre for when the shot demands precision. You get the speed of a circle and the accuracy of a fine dot in one sight picture.

Why A Circle Is Faster Than A Dot

The eye is very good at finding the centre of a circle without being told to. Present the pistol imperfectly and a large ring appears at the edge of the window where a small dot would simply be absent, and your eye pulls the centre onto the target without conscious effort.

It is the same principle Trijicon has used in the ACOG for decades. On the Trijicon RMR HD 1 MOA Dot 55 MOA Reticle it is applied to a pistol optic, and it is the reason this sight has been adopted by law enforcement agencies who need one optic to work for a close encounter and for a deliberate shot past twenty five yards.

Built On The RMR, Not Beside It

Trijicon kept the patented RMR housing shape, the forged aluminium construction and the mounting footprint. A slide already cut for an RMR takes the Trijicon RMR HD 1 MOA Dot 55 MOA Reticle directly, and RMR plates and picatinny mounts you already own will fit it without modification.

What changed is everything around the reticle. The window is noticeably larger and less obstructed than a standard RMR, the battery loads from the top, the windage and elevation adjusters were redesigned, and there is an index ridge on the housing for one handed slide manipulation.

Battery, Brightness And Maintenance

Nine brightness settings, three of them night vision compatible and one a super bright level for snow, sand or shooting into a low sun. The CR2032 is rated at over three years of continuous use at setting five with the dot alone, and the circle draws more current when you use it.

The cell loads from the top, so the Trijicon RMR HD 1 MOA Dot 55 MOA Reticle never leaves its mount for a battery change and zero is never disturbed. Between that and the sealed sixty five foot submersion rating, there is very little routine maintenance to think about.

Why Shooters Choose The Trijicon RMR HD 1 MOA Dot 55 MOA Reticle

• Selectable reticle: a 1 MOA dot alone, or inside a 55 MOA circle
• Large unobstructed window compared with a standard RMR
• Top loading battery, so no remount and no re-zero
• Index ridge on the housing for one handed slide manipulation
• Identical RMR mounting footprint
• Submersible to 65 feet and rated from -40F to 140F

The Index Ridge Is Not A Styling Detail

There is a defined ridge on the housing you can hook on a belt, a holster mouth, a boot heel or a door frame to cycle the slide with one hand. Anyone who has tried to rack a slide against a smooth optic knows how badly that goes.

It matters on a duty pistol because a hand may be injured, holding a light, holding a door, or holding a child. The Trijicon RMR HD 1 MOA Dot 55 MOA Reticle gives you a purchase point without bolting anything extra to the gun.

Adjustment And Zeroing

One minute per click against a hundred and thirty five minutes of total travel. Because the dot is itself one minute, a single click moves the aiming point exactly its own width, which makes counting corrections on paper unusually easy.

Zero with the dot alone rather than the circle. The circle is a speed aid, not an aiming reference, and you want the Trijicon RMR HD 1 MOA Dot 55 MOA Reticle regulated to the precise point you will use for a deliberate shot.

Who It Is For

Law enforcement and duty users who need one optic to work at contact distance and out past twenty five yards. Competitors who move between close targets and small distant steel within a single stage. Anyone who has owned both a big dot and a small dot and been dissatisfied with each for opposite reasons.

If you only ever shoot close and fast, a five minute dot is cheaper and simpler. If you only ever shoot deliberately, a plain one minute dot will do. The Trijicon RMR HD 1 MOA Dot 55 MOA Reticle is for the shooter who genuinely needs both and does not want to choose in advance.

Mounting And Ordering

No mount is included. The RMR footprint means an RMR cut slide, an RMR plate or an RMR picatinny mount will all take this optic. On an uncut pistol the slide must be milled or you fit a rear sight mount. Browse the rest of our optics and sights and read the manufacturer specification page for the full detail.

Switching Reticles On The Trijicon RMR HD 1 MOA Dot 55 MOA Reticle

The selection is made on the optic itself rather than through a menu on a phone, and it holds until you change it. Pick the mode that suits the day rather than treating it as something to toggle mid string, and remember that running the circle on the Trijicon RMR HD 1 MOA Dot 55 MOA Reticle draws more battery than the dot alone.
