Depends on the type of shooting that you do. If shooting no more than 300 yards I like the 4X ACOG TA 31 even with the sort eye relief. If longer range shooting a Vortex Viper PST FFP 4X-16X50 or if you have the coin a Nightforce NXS 3.5-15X50.

I settled on a Ranger holographic reflex sight to start with. When I get my next AR I will try out some other optics. I looked at the Nightforce on line and I think that just might suit me.
