Holographic and dot sights do not actually project a beam directly on the target as a laser sight does. These units are typically used for close to mid range distances and are very effective in acquiring a moving target quickly. The holograhic units have one screen while the "dot" units are built using a tube-like construction. The "dot" sight will always be just a single illuminated dot with brightness (intensity) control.  The "holgraphic" sights will  typically have four images available--one of which one is a single "dot".  The other three images are 1) dot with circle, 2) cross hair, and 3) combination dot, circle, & cross hair in one image.

The relative accuracy of these units are measured in Minutes of Angle or MOA. As a quick rule of thumb, one MOA (minute of Angle) means that the dot covers 1" at 100 yards and at 200 yards the dot covers approximately 2".  A 3 MOA would have a 3" pattern at 100 yds or approximately 6" at 200 yards.  (Multiply the MOA by the yards to get the coverage). Typically these types of units are from 3 to 5 MOA.  The smaller the number, the more accurate, but also the reference dot is smaller and therefore harder to see and line up, especially in situations demanding quick action.
