I put an RM06 on my G29 a couple of weeks ago and have run a variety of loads including some 200 gr. WFN handloads that chrono between 1120 and 1250 fps. I have had no issues at all and overall am pleased with the setup. I used a "Sightmount" http://www.sight-mount.com/ that is a rear sight as well as a picatinny mount, rather than milling the slide. It gives me a good buis in the event the red dot fails, but the more I use it the more confidence I have in it. I just wish I had done it sooner because it is much easier to do precision shooting with my old eyes.
I have had no trouble picking up the red dot even though it is not as sharp as it could be due to my astigmatism. I can still shoot better with it than trying to focus on iron sights. It's especially good in low light that is not dark enough for tritium sights to show, yet too dark for standard iron sights - like for hunting, which is what I originally wanted it for.
I'm not sure how it would work with a Streamlight because when I am out in the evening with my handheld flashlight it's easier to see the red dot if I hold the light above my head. The brightest setting is pretty bright, though, so possibly if I could come to my usual 2 hand hold it would pick up more readily than trying to hold a light in one hand and the gun in the other.
I may eventually decide to mill the slide, but so far it is really pretty handy as is, and rugged. I use it for a charging handle and it works great.
