| I am looking for a good red dot that won't break the bank (< $300). If anybody has any experience with the Millett DMS, I would greatly appreciate your feedback. |

I have one mounted on my Ruger SR556, No problems encountered, I haven't run any obsticle courses with it, so I can't attest to rugedness.

But they gave me a new one so I put it on my ar 
like it
| I used one for about a year or so. It held zero well, the adjustments were repeatable and accurate, and it worked well in general. The optical clarity was pretty bad and it had a noticeable fisheye at 1x. The illumination, while fairly bright, flared a bit at higher settings. Lastly, I felt it was a bit too big for a 1-4x scope. These nuances annoyed me enough that I sold it off. Right now I'm using a 2-7x Burris Timberline until I can afford one of the fancier 1-6x, 1.5-5x, or 1.5-8x optics out there (if I buy something else at all). |
