If you can pick up a a Burris XTR II 1-8 I believe you would be very very pleased. I have their 1-8 FFP and their XTR II 1.5-8 Dual Focal Plane. I can run both optics CQB, and the glass is really good. Better than my Viper PST glass. Eye relief is good, I run my stocks in the 4 position and from 1-8 I have no issues. Eye box is pretty forgiving although it does tighten up a little at 8x, it is definitely usable and still quick. Part of it is also that I like the Burris circle dot reticles. I know you said this is a duty optic, and I’m a little hesitant to mention this, but I will.
If you aren’t completely opposed to it, look for a used optic. It’s really a safe bet because of the Burris “Forever warranty” literally no questions asked no matter if you’re the 5th ownerless the 50th. I’ll be honest, I’ve bought 2 optics brand new. If you trust the brand and they have an excellent warranty, I think it’s a win. It allows me to pick up a really good optic at a really good price. I paid $400 for the 1.5 -8 and $600 for the 1-8. I also buy from E&E members whom I can trust. Would I run either of these optics I own on a duty rifle? Yes I would. They’re both 34mm and just very well built. The 1.5-8 is on my LMT MWS and the 1-8 FFP is on a 14.5 Noveske. Zero issues/zero disappointments. Oh as an aside I emailed Burris and told them I lost the turret caps and small turrets for one of my scopes. That was this morning. This afternoon I got a shipment notice and an email saying. They are mailing me both caps, turrets and new flip up scope covers that I can’t find.
