If I could find a Vortex Viper PST 1-6 for $500, I would get that over the PA 1-6. How would the target acquisition on 1x with the PST be compared to the PA with their ACSS reticle?

I would agree with that statement. I think the difference you would notice the most at 1x between the two:
PST had day light bright aim point style reticle, where the PA has a donut eotech style that is thick black etchings. Also the PST has better glass all around. Eye box and Field of view really start to show. I think the PST is an awesome optic for the price, just a little on the porky side. If that doesn't bother you though, its a good choice.

Does anyone have any dealings with the Mercon MK1 1-6? I stumbled across GarandThumb’s review on it from last year. Apparently upon its release, it retailed for around $900, but on Rainer Arms and a few other websites, I’ve seen it low as $300. There were a few complaints on the red dot’s poor illumination for the $900 price point, but I wonder if it would be worth a try while it’s going for $300 compared to say a PA ACSS.

They have MOA and MIL, as well as packages for $600 with mount.
It’s hard to beat the primary arms sfp 1-6 for the money.i have never really worked the bdc in the 1-6,but I have done quite a bit of shooting with the acss in the 4-14
And found that if you use m193,that the bdc works pretty good.
The Burris XTRii 1-5 can be found for around $400. They’re clearing them out and we’re originally around $800. It’s a solid, daylight nuclear bright option.
Thanks for all of the input. I think I (finally) have made my decision to go with the Vortex Viper PST Gen 2 1-6. I’m just stuck between the MRAD and MOA, I’m leaning more towards the MOA as of now, but still undecided on that after reading into the two.
I had a primary arms 1-6 for about three years and never just really happy with it but couldn’t find anything else that I liked.
Finally checked out a SWFA 1-6, IMO you get more for your money with the SWFA
