Help with choosing 1-4 for Recce
I am in need of an optic for my Recce rifle. 16 inch BCM. I originally had it setup like a SPR type rifle with a 2.5-10 but I decided I wanted it to be more of a DMR than a true precision rig. Im wanting a optic for 0-500 yards on man sized steel targets. Im not looking for something to shoot the tightest groups with.
My main players Im looking at are the Trijicon TR24 Accupoint and the Trijicon Accupower. Im having a hard time deciding.
Ive used the Accupoint before and I am a big fan of the simplicity and durability of the tritium and fiber optic combo. I would be buying the the triangle reticle and have never shot it at ranges past 200 yards. To me it seems the Accupower reticles would be much better for longer range shots. Im looking at the segmented circle with the BDC reticle. Overall for a precision aspect it seems like the Accupower is better choice, but would give up the simplicity I really like of the TR24. What do you guys think? Am I over thinking the simplicity aspect and should just go with the better reticle? How does the triangle do at 300 to 500 yards at hitting steel?
I know there are other options out there in the same sub 800 dollar range (le/mil pricing for the Trijicons) but Ive never really used them. Anything else I should be looking at?
Thanks.

No dude is going to get shot in the chest at 300 yards and look down and say "What is that, a 3 MOA group?"
