Testing out the amount of error allowed behind each optic.
While I love the ACSS Vulcan, I found the SRO to be easier during target transition in competition use.
I was also not a fan of the chevron reticle. I would prefer a simple dot in the center.

Nice, informative video. SRO has a slightly larger field of view. but with the Vulcan ACCS it certainly lets you know where the dot is in relation to where you are presently seeing!
@ericmpena
@ericmpena 3 года назад
The SRO has a much larger vertical field of view, which is nice for tracking recoil straight up and down. I do feel much more confident with the Vulcan reticle when I'm shooting on the move, around barricades, or even something as simple as just drawing my gun. During my last local class a few other red dot shooters found themselves losing their dot during different drills. I never once had to fish for the dot during the entire class (just 4 hours). That peace of mind alone was enough to make me switch over. My SRO now sits as an offset red dot with my LPVO.

Recently bought an SRO and originally has the ACSS. Having shot both now, one thing I think isn't apparent in this video but is when shooting them, is how much easier it is to keep the SRO dot on the glass and to track the dot vs the ACSS. I keep the ACSS on my carry gun because I've dropped it, and know it can take a beating. The SRO is on my competition gun.
@ericmpena
@ericmpena 2 года назад
Same. After trying both, I kept the SRO on my competition gun (Shadow 2). Target transitions and keeping the dot in the glass were just easier on the SRO. The Vulcan has it's place...but a competition setting isn't really it. I think the ACSS Vulcan reticle would be excellent on a smaller window optic like the 507k.
@denwardchin
@denwardchin 3 года назад
I have multiple copies of both sights. I loved the ACSS Vulcan but ended up turning the outer circle off. It is a bit distracting under recoil. I don't have a problem finding my dot at speed during presentation. I turn the outer ring back on when new dot shooters shoot with me. I like the chevron reticle. It's easy to track under recoil due to it's size yet precise when I need it to be. Overall, the SRO in practice is still faster IMO. Yes, the outer ring of the Vulcan can help you find your dot quickly but with a little practice, you won't need it. The real advantage for the SRO is that glass is large enough so that you can track the dot under recoil. On most my guns, the dot lever leaves the window. The Vulcans window is about the size of the RMR. The chevron leaves the window on most carry style polymer guns unless I choke the shit out of it. From a visual stand point, and for me and my eyes, turning on the outer circle leaves a pink smudge on the bottom half of the glass under recoil. It's pretty distracting. The main advantage for the Vulcan is, as stated above, it's Chevron. The glass also handles low sun/glare situations significantly better then pretty much all of trijicons mrds. The projectors on SROs and RMRs cause some pretty major issues with glare and cost like $200+ more. Some extra food for thought: my second 507 ACSS vulcan came with the reticle canted slightly. I'm in the process of sending it back. PA has great customer service. On the flip side, I've had to send back numerous RMRs and one SRO over the years. My current carry gun is a Glock 48 MOS, chpws plate with the 507ACSS Vulcan. All of my competition guns run either an SRO, cmore or Romeo 3 XL.
@ericmpena
@ericmpena 3 года назад
The Vulcan can be great for new shooters, but it was designed with LE/Mil in mind. The Vulcan was tested in force on force training and it was far superior to anything else on the market. I think the SRO has its place as a great competitive optic. The Vulcan shines in those moments when you're in non-optimal shooting positions. You really can't go wrong with either optic. It just comes down to your purpose.

@ericmpena
@ericmpena 2 года назад
I still have the SRO mounted on my Shadow 2. The ACSS Vulcan is a nice option, but I hope it's implemented into other optics with larger windows. For me, the ACSS Vulcan is most useful when shooting from unconventional positions. For competition, I much prefer the larger SRO window for keeping the dot in the glass and target transitions. I'd love to see the ACSS Vulcan in a small window optic like the 507k though. I think it would be an excellent reticle option for EDC.
@michaelnyden8056

Why doesn’t Holosun just release a large round window optic at half the price of the sro, pretty sure then the argument would be over as people keep bringing up the window size on the rmr. Holosun would kill trijicon at that point.

What distance is this at? When I hold my ACSS up as far as my arm can go (I'm 6'2"), I can still see the ring at the edge, even when percetly centered.
@ericmpena
@ericmpena 2 года назад
Not sure of the exact distance, but it was just enough to get the circle out of the POV. I know that when I used the Vulcan on my Shadow 2, I didn't have any issues with the circle being in my glass and I don't have abnormally long arms or anything. I know the circle is not a "one size fits all" so some people with shorter arms may always have the circle visible in the window.

I still use my SRO. For competition, I prefer the SRO because I find that my target transitions are more consistent. The Vulcan is great if you have inconsistencies in your draw stroke or if you find yourself shooting from weird positions like around barriers often. Both optics have their advantages. Maybe someday we'll be able to have an SRO with the Vulcan reticle (dot instead of chevron for me) so that you have the best of both worlds.

@ericmpena
@ericmpena 2 года назад
I still use my SRO for competition just because I've found the larger window a bit easier for transitioning targets. For everything else though like shooting around or under barricades...and even one handed shooting...the ACSS feels like cheating. You basically won't ever have to hunt for your reticle in weird scenarios. But for competition stuff (USPSA), I don't really find that I need the features of the ACSS.
@mrterry2315
@mrterry2315 3 года назад
Which one do you like better? I have an SRO and am considering thr 507c with Vulcan.
@ericmpena
@ericmpena 3 года назад
I think it depends what you're doing with it. For competition use, I sorta like the larger window on the SRO a bit better. It just gives you more wiggle room when transitioning between targets. The Vulcan is fantastic for anyone who expects to shoot from weird positions, or maybe under stress or force on force contact...situations where a perfect draw or presentation may not be possible. When you need to take a shot over your shoulder, or under/around a barricade, or anything that will make keeping your dot in the glass more difficult, the Vulcan is easily the winner. For me, most of my shooting is not self-defense focused...I mostly shoot competitive style events like USPSA and Steel Challenge, and for that style of shooting, I do prefer the SRO. For a carry gun or duty weapon, I'd easily pick the Vulcan over the SRO though. Hope that helps you out!

The closer your eye is to the optic, the circle will become visible. So putting a magnifier up against the optic should make it to where the circle is visible. I didn't test this on my own, but I've seen people use the ACSS optic with night vision and the circle is visible for them.
