Enclosed is a review and comparison of the Redfield Accelerator reflex sight. The sight has a street value of ~$ 200 and has a large 6 MOA red dot. 6 MOA implies the dot will cover a 6 inch diameter target at 100 yards. The larger the dot the faster the target acquisition. Since I'll be mounting this on a Remington 870, a 6 MOA dot is fine. I'll also be comparing the Redfield accelerator vs. Burris Cross Fire III ($225) and the Tijicon RMR ($650) RM06 adjustable reflex sight, The Tijicon has a 6.5 MOA and the Burris has a smaller dot at 3 MOA.
