I've currently got an Aimpoint, an Eotech, and a Nightforce 1-4 for my carbines. The Aimpoint is there becaue it was a god deal. I prefer the Eotech for everything over the Aimpoint. The dot is smaller on the Eotech for longer range and the big circle is easy for me up close.
My favorite optic is the NF. At 1 power it works well up close and further out it's far superior to the red dots. I can't comment on the S&B and doubt I'll ever own one. The NF with the FC2 reticle is outstanding. With the lit donut on 1 power it's easy to use up close. The only downside might be the length of the tube as you look through it. I get the feeling your FOV suffers because of that long tube but that could just be an impression and not factual.
