Its not regarding where the dot is in the glass its where shots are hitting. Also i like setting 5 on this one seems to be good for most lighting low and high vis.

    RMR cut is for a bigger optic based on the Trijicon RMR pattern. This is the pattern for optics that fit a standard double stack pistol. There’s also the Doctor cut and Viper/Venom cut which are for pistols that size. The RMSc cut is based on the Shield Sights RMSc and is a smaller optic than the RMR and other sizes. The Swampfox Sentinel, RMSc, SMS2, RomeoZero, and Holosun 507k are this size.

Hell, without knowing what’s what by experience or a lot of research, you can’t even find out what’s regular red dot size and micro red dot because half the time they call them all micros.
