Holosun 507HUNT-MO Review: The Perfect Red Dot for Your Hunting Shotgun?

Holosun 507HUNT-MO Review: The Perfect Red Dot for Your Hunting Shotgun?

Mark Dymond |

Holosun has introduced a new limited-edition red dot designed specifically with hunters in mind: the Holosun 507HUNT-MO.

Built on the popular 507COMP platform, the 507HUNT-MO features the same large viewing window, a red Multi-Reticle System (MRS), and a unique Military Olive finish that looks great on a wide variety of hunting shotguns.Ā It also includes a matching Military Olive Picatinny rail mount, making it a great option for hunters looking to add a red dot to their shotgun.

The biggest thing to know? This is a special-edition release with limited quantities available. Let's take a closer look at what makes the Holosun 507HUNT-MO unique.

Starts at $369.99

Military Olive Finish: Designed for Hunting Shotguns

One of the biggest differences between the 507HUNT-MO and other Holosun optics is its color.

The "MO" in 507HUNT-MO stands for Military Olive, a subdued green finish that complements a wide variety of hunting firearms.

Most red dots come in black or FDE, so the Military Olive color is appealing for hunters because it pairs nicely with common hunting shotguns with olive-colored furniture and especially shotguns featuring camouflage patterns.

Whether your shotgun has a woodland, marsh, or other camouflage finish, Military Olive offers a more natural-looking alternative to a traditional black optic.Ā The optic also features subdued branding, giving it a clean appearance that fits its hunting-focused design.

And since this is a limited-edition Holosun release, it's not necessarily a color you'll be able to pick up whenever you want.

Large 507COMP Window for Fast Target Acquisition

If the 507HUNT-MO looks familiar, that's because it shares its housing design with the popular Holosun 507COMP.

That means you get the same generous 1.1" x 0.87" viewing window, which is one of the biggest advantages of this optic.Ā A larger window makes it easier to find the reticle when bringing your shotgun up into position. It also provides more room to track the reticle while maintaining awareness of your target and surroundings.

For shotgun hunters, especially those who need to acquire a target quickly, that extra window space can be a major benefit. And despite its large window, the optic weighs only 1.7 ounces and features a durable 7075-T6 aluminum housing.

Red Multi-Reticle System: 2 MOA Dot and 32 MOA Circle

The Holosun 507HUNT-MO uses Holosun's Multi-Reticle System (MRS), which allows you to toggle between three different red reticle configurations:

  • 2 MOA Dot: A small, precise aiming point that works well when you want a less cluttered sight picture.
  • 32 MOA Circle: A large circle that provides a highly visible reference for quickly locating the reticle.
  • 2 MOA Dot + 32 MOA Circle: Combines both reticles, giving you a precise center dot surrounded by a larger circle.

This flexibility is particularly useful for those who want to customize their sight picture depending on their preferences and hunting application.Ā One important detail is that the 507HUNT-MO is only available with a red reticle. There is currently no green reticle version of this limited-edition model.

How Does the 507HUNT Compare to the 507COMP and Ronin?

The 507HUNT-MO is essentially a hunting-focused variation of the Holosun 507COMP.

All three optics share the same large window size and housing dimensions, but there are some differences worth mentioning.

The standard 507COMP uses Holosun's Competition Reticle System (CRS), featuring a 2 MOA dot along with 8 MOA, 20 MOA, and 32 MOA circle options.

The 507HUNT-MO instead uses the simpler MRS reticle with a 2 MOA dot and 32 MOA circle.Ā In that regard, it's very similar to the Holosun Ronin 507COMP, which also features the 2 MOA dot and 32 MOA circle combination.Ā However, unlike the Ronin, the 507HUNT-MO doesn't feature the dragon artwork on its housing. Instead it has the Military Olive finish and subdued branding.

RMR Footprint with an Included Military Olive Picatinny Mount

Another great feature of the 507HUNT-MO is its mounting versatility.

The optic uses the popularĀ RMR footprint, meaning it can mount directly to compatible RMR receivers, or with the use of adapter plates.

However, Holosun also includes an RMR-to-Picatinny rail mount, finished in the same Military Olive color as the optic itself.

This is a particularly nice addition for shotgun hunters because many hunting shotguns have Picatinny rail mounting options. So rather than requiring you to purchase a separate mount, the 507HUNT-MO already includes one in the package.Ā And because the mount matches the optic's Military Olive finish, the entire setup maintains a consistent appearance.

The package also includes two different screw sizes for compatible mounting applications:

  • 6-32 x 7.5mm screws
  • 6-32 x 9.5mm screws

As always, make sure your shotgun's receiver or mounting system is compatible before purchasing.

Battery Life, Shake Awake, and Durability

Beyond its appearance and large viewing window, the Holosun 507HUNT-MO includes many of the features that have made Holosun optics so popular.

Shake Awake with Last Setting Recall

Holosun's Shake Awake technology helps conserve battery life by putting the optic into a low-power state when it isn't moving. Once motion is detected, the reticle automatically reactivates at its previous setting.

Up to 50,000 Hours of Battery Life

The 507HUNT-MO uses a CR1632 battery and offers up to 50,000 hours of battery life when using the 2 MOA dot only on brightness setting 6. Actual runtime will depend on the brightness and reticle configuration.

Durable Construction for Hunting Conditions

The housing is constructed from 7075-T6 aluminum and features an IP67 waterproof rating, providing protection against dust and temporary water immersion.

It also features a parallax-free design and unlimited eye relief, allowing for flexible eye positioning behind the optic.

Final Thoughts: Is the Holosun 507HUNT-MO Worth It?

The Holosun 507HUNT-MO takes a proven optic design and gives it a hunting-focused makeover.

You're getting the same large 507COMP viewing window, a simple but versatile Multi-Reticle System, and Holosun's popular battery-saving and durability features.Ā But what really makes this optic stand out is the Military Olive finish and matching Picatinny mount.

For shotgun hunters who want a red dot that complements their hunting setup, especially one with a camouflage finish, the 507HUNT-MO is an appealing alternative to traditional black optics.Ā And because it's a limited-edition release, availability may be short-lived.
