Mine was zeroed and drifted after the first 2 range trips, but it was hand tightened. I took it off and properly torqued it and the dot hasn’t shifted since.
@StayTacticalSD Glad it worked out. Sent mine to Sig, came back, said nothing was wrong. Got a gunsmith to torque to spec. Now all is good now. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!
Just bought one yesterday, mounted it, and put 210 rounds through it. Didn’t need to zero it at all and hitting steel decently after getting a feel for it. 4 inch plate at 10 yards, 10inch plate at 12 yards, and a 12 inch at 15 yards somewhat consistently. Didn’t lose zero. Price point for it wasn’t worth it but I like it better so far than my vortex defender ccw.
@@KeanonGilliamSlang369 I digress, noticed a little crack in the glass near bottom this morning. It’s not in my line of sight at all. Might take it back to Cabela’s and exchange it. I bought the display model so maybe it was dropped but still shouldn’t be there. I think they should’ve recessed the glass back more, considering how deep the hood is from the emitter and brass ejects right there from the extractor. Good review!
If your dot is consistently off after you've zeroed it, it may be because the Sig-recommended 24in/lbs torque might be too much. I re-torqued mine to 15in/lbs, and it did the trick.
Has that same issue with the Romeo 1 and Romeo 1 pro, and romeo zero. I put on a new gun run 50 and reset the dot. It would hold after that. Now those dots are relegated to 22lr only. My Romeo 2 has been GREAT. Have it on a P227 with a couple thousand rounds of 45. Suppressed and unsuppressed. My only complaint is the plastic back window. Scratches if a light breeze goes past it.
I ditched my Romeo and first generation X-Carry for a Zev full slide for my Trijicon RMR. If I keep track of my adjustments, the RMR is really close on the Shadow Systems MR920L going back and forth.
@davej8045 Glad the RMR is working great. I'd like to replace mine with the Holosun 507 Comp, a really good optic. See what happens when I get my Romeo X back.
I almost bought a P365XL with the Romeo Zero Elite and suppressor height sights, changed my mind last minute and got a TacPack version instead, I'll probably look for a different red dot, although I will be carrying the P365XL, so I just might pass on the red dot, not sure. Good video thanks for sharing!
I had a lot of trouble with the Romeo X that I had on my 320. I shot it one time and some of finish was already coming off and I just couldn’t get it zeroed and the lens scratching too. Thankfully I bought it on Amazon and was able to return it for a full refund.
I LOVE my Romeo 1pros and romeo 2s. In fact the Romeo 2 is my absolute favorite optic right now. However, the x has not impressed me at all and sold all 4 of mine. It is the only open emitter that I have ever had a problem with getting clogged, and not being able to see through on my ccw. I had the Romeo zero, then the holo 407, then the x and now the holosun eps on my 365. The x would accumulate more debris from my environment in two days than the zero or the 407 in two MONTHS. I am an admitted sigaholic these days for both guns and optics but as of right now, I’m not a Romeo x fan at all.
@jasonbenton7962 I'm a fan of my Romeo 1 Pro, which made me consider buying the Romeo X. The best thing I like about Sig handgun optics is, they don't need optic plates as long as it's on a Sig firearm. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!
Dang that sucks. I had to send in my Sig Romeo 5 because it lost all medium brightness settings, I only had the lowest & brightest, they just sent me a brand new one.
@KeanonGilliamSlang369 ive heard they are excellent dots though.. But it seems like everything in the gun world works like this.. When something drops, it has issues and the 2nd batch or release they have worked the kinks out and ends up being fantastic.. those 21 round mags are probably seeing that issue as well.. I know 3 guys who have the Fuse, and they all say the gun runs flawlessly with the 17 round mags, but occasionally they have issues with the 21 round mags.. I remember the same being true with the 17 round mags.. After the initial release, the kinks were worked out and now they're dependable as u could want
I just used my Rome X one time at the range and the Lense is now cracked and the red dot has multiple dots on it now. The amount of money invested in this optic does not match the quality and Sig should consider taking this product off the market. I also purchased a Romeo Elite and it wont get on target at all. It shoots low and to the left and I've got an RMA for that optic and Sig is asking me if I want to upgrade to the Romeo X?? Now way, 2 strikes and I'm returning both optics. Stay away from the Romeo X and the Romeo Elite.
@k1ngdomdefense404 I sent the Romeo X back to Sig. Got it back, and it seems to be working properly. Though Sig said there was nothing wrong with it, I know different. My friend who shot it said the dot moved. They must have fixed it because it's fine now. I do like the redicals on the optic.
@danielf.6059 Sent back to Sig. They claimed no issues, but i think they did something. I had my gunsmith torch it down to spec. So far, so good. If issues start, I'll get a different optic. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!
@SkipsGunz Glad you contacted me. I mentioned you on my video new video. I have issues with my Prodigy. Sending it to Springfield, but once it's back, I'll be sending it to you.
You bet I look at TH-cam reviews before I throw cash away. This video (and some of the comments) single-handedly killed my interest in this optic. I've been a manufacturer's R&D guinea pig enough already.
@stevei3471 Well, thanks for your opinion. Something had to have been wrong if others had the same issue. However, I'm grateful that Sig checked the issue and I have no complaints. Thanks you for watching, greatly appreciate it!
Dude. This video pisses me off. Well… maybe not the videos itself.. but the fact that you just made me come to the realization that this optic is hot garbage.. I didn’t realize it was the optic.. I thought it was me, breaking my grip/wrist. Also, I really thought that I somehow had acquired a scratch … after checking it out under a magnifying glass scope, I now realize that I have what appears to be a hairline fracture within the glass.. it’s weird, there is no scratch on the surface, inside or outside, and tbh, it hasn’t had an opportunity to get scratched. It has been sitting in my safe and seen only one range trip since I got it! But sure enough, there is minuscule fracture that almost spiderwebs. I didn’t notice this when shooting because it’s in the bottom left hand corner… but when my reticle shifted!!! I did notice it!! Thank you for the video! Sending this in tomorrow. If it doesn’t come back perfect I will be selling it.. which I hate, because I really, really, reallllllyyyy love everything about this optic! - except the problem- but on paper, it’s perfect.
@Kiloalphabravo I originally liked the optic, too, until all the issues. I sent mine back to Sig and heard nothing back yet. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!
The Romeo X is overpriced garbage. I’m very sour about this optic as I bought 3. 2 have been back to Sig. scratches on the glass just from normal use and one that the red dot would be crisp and after taking a shot it would splatter like a starburst and then back to pure again. I’m super angry about this optic
@toddparsons2980 I sent it back to Sig. They claimed they couldn't reproduce the issues I had. My gunsmith friend mounted it back on and zeroed it. Will keep you posted. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!
If i where sig, I would have a lawsuit against you hahaha, How can you make a video with a bad review when its your own fault. This is not a responsible review and i bet you have more bad information on other products.
@jeremytaylor7050 It's one man's opinion. I like a lot of Sig's products. I felt I had an issue. My experience with Sig is .... if it's their fault, they'll usually fix it. If it's my fault, they'll tell me where I went wrong. So my relationship with Sig is "good". No lawsuits please! LOL, BTW, I got my Romeo X back, and it's working fine. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!

Muzzle discipline friend.
Being confident with one's gun is different than being over-comforable. That's an easy path down the road to complacency.

Great story bro
I'll probably just get another Holosun EPS carry, at least until Sig works out the kinks on these
@RonnieEverette Sent it to Sig, got it back. Seems to working fine now. I'm with you on a different optic. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!

Check out the new Holosun SCS Carry. Bought it for my XMacro, 5 stars! Holosun is killing it!!
@@apeop73You're absolutely right, Holosun has been killing the optic market!

@rrneegg9479 The scary part about it is that our military has a version of the Romeo X in FDE for their service pistols.
Wow!!!! I haven't used mine very much maybe i need to check mine
@Highgear145 Hopefully, you have a good one.
Oh No! I just bought the Fuse with the Romeo X. I wish that I would have caught this video a week ago.
