I haven't mounted it yet, but do any of y'all have something like a 3x with a dot? Mostly used for hogs.

Any recs if so?

Kind of a loaded question. It's worth it if you want some magnification, personal preference really.. Vortex makes the VMX-3T flip up magnifier that's relatively cheap ($199ish). Burris makes one too that comes with a quick release mount already on it.

Vortex has a 3x magnifier you can put behind it.

I saw that flip up/down vortex 3x yall are referencing, just can't justify the price yet.

I bought Vortex 3X Spitfire a few weeks ago and really like it. For reference , I have non magnified Aimpoint Pro and also an ACOG 4X fixed. Very happy with the 3X Spitfire, my eyes are still good enough to use non magnified Aimpoint at 100 yds but notice that I'm more accurate with the 3X especially at ranges further than 100 yds. I don't care for the type of battery the Spitfire uses but because it is an etched prism, I always have a crosshair even with no battery. The glass itself looks really nice.

Pick one up used, warranty still holds if it has an issue.

I have one of those PA/Samson 3x magnifiers in my safe. I use it for 100 yard zeroing of my red dots. For hunting hogs at less than 100 yards, I don't see much importance for magnification. We routinely ring steel, as small as 8" with a .22 using a red dot, and shoot on the move with unmagnified optics out to 40 yards.
