Vortex pst 1-4 based on reviews and price.

Trijicon tr24, because of astigmatism and radiation

Swarovski Z6i, 1-6 w/ BRT reticle. The two most important factors for me were a true 1x at the lowest setting so I could use it as I would an Aimpoint; and a daytime bright illuminated dot. There was nothing else that even came close at the time. I had been waiting on the S&B 1-8, but it's still in the vaporware category 3 years later.

The FOV is unbelievable until you experience it. It has a memory that keeps a daytime setting for the dot, and a night time setting. The BRT reticle is essentially a mil-dot tree. It's lighter than most optics in the same category (including some 1-4's). I absolutely love the glass and was so impressed I picked up a 2nd one for my 7.62 rifle. I do get a LE price directly from Swarovski, but even at full price I'd consider it worth every dollar and would have bought it anyway.

I had a TR24 with a green triangle and a Leupold VX-R Patrol 1.25-4, but I sold them both. I decided ACOGs worked better for me. I might pick up a PST 1-4 or something else in the future, especially if I get a Six8 at some point.

Leupold Mark AR 1.5 - 4 (FireDot-G SPR model) Price point mainly. I picked it up for $425.00

Nightforce NXS 1-4 with FC-3G reticle

my first was NF 1-4x which was a total abomination of an optic. got rid of it and replaced it with a swaro z6i 1-6x which was awesome except the illumination switch is a little too easy to accidentally turn on, and at the time, their reticle choices left a lot to be desired. they're better now though. i still have this optic and use it quite often, but then I got a vortex 1-6 HD which is just as good on glass with better knobs and reticle. a friend had to have it so i parted with it, which is why I'm still using the swaro. I'd definitely buy another though. Only downside to vortex HD was weight. it's way heavier than it looks. Finally, I bought a USO 1-8x which is better than the rest by a wide margin: better mag range, red-dot, reticle, weight, size, etc.

+1 I got the capped version though.

PST reticle is pretty fine for precision shots at 300 yet big enough for fast shots under 25.

ETA: paid $400 for mine like new and not used at the range.

Just check the specs and it is light for power range.
