Kahles k16i, Nightforce ATACR 1-8, or Nightforce nx8. I have the k16i (thanks WS6) and ATACR. A couple friends have the nx8. My personal preference is the ATACR.
The ATACR reticle gives you a great reticle for hunting in WY imo. The mil based Christmas tree type with wind holds offers a lot.
Re: bdc vs. mil based reticle, just spend some time getting the dope for your preferred loads, make a dope card, shoot a lot and you’ll be just as fast as with a bdc. I had a Steiner military 1-4 as a place holder on my mws for about a year. It had the 5.56 bdc and worked well for 147gr. That said I prefer the mil based reticles of the k16i am-1 and ATACR.
As WS6 suggested, the cmr-w gives the bdc you want and has wind holds. I’m personally not that impressed with the mk6 1-6 glass and 1x. But I have a friend who likes it and shoots it well.
If you have the ability to try before you buy, I would strongly recommend doing so. Link up with m4c member or members who have the optics you want to try.
