I'd like to scope a .223 AR for learing about scope use. My compact ACOG has is sold, so I am going to replace it. The rifle will be of a designated marksman variety, in order to have at least some close-in defensive capability. The furthest I would consider engaging with it would be 300m. I figured out a few more details about the scope I want:
- low fixed power (2x or 3x)
- rangefinder reticle, preferably with stadia lines instead of mil-dots
- reticle illumination, either fiber optic or battery
2x ACOG is on the list, would like to get other sugegstions.
I would consider a zoom optic, but it seems that the ranging reticle would necessarily change thickness depending on the magnification. Am I correct in that assumption?
