Let me share with you my personal experience with sights and scopes. Like you, I had an old rifle scope that didn't come with a CDS system, and I really wanted to upgrade. I tried to buy separate turrets with the CDS system, but quickly realized that it wasn't as convenient as I thought it would be. I had to keep changing turrets for different calibers and it became a hassle.
That's when I discovered the Sparc Red Dot. It required no turret adjustments, regardless of caliber. All you had to do was aim and shoot. I have to admit that I was skeptical at first, but after using it it made a lasting impression on me. The Sparc Red Dot was rugged and could withstand the rigors of field use, which is always a plus in my book.
Bottom line, I'd say the Vortex red dots are a great alternative to the standalone turrets in CDS systems, especially if you're looking for a simpler shooting experience. No need to fumble with different calibers, just aim and shoot. It might be worth considering this option, especially if you've had similar experiences with older sights like I have.
