    1 click out because ACOG. Felt weird at first because I'm 6'2", but im used to it now. I even run my stuff with red dots the same way.

    The comfort zone I find for me is 1 notch out or none. Running suppressed SBR's and ACOGs. I feel that the shorter configuration handles better in a majority of situations and that one's choice of optic or sight type highly relent to this thread.

    None or two notches out depending on what I’m doing. Further out when prone.

    1-2 out from collapsed, depending on if it's standard RE or an A5. I just mark them with a paint pen and forget it.

    Mine depend on the buffer tube, if it has a folder, and what kind of stock or brace is on it. I run all my AR's nose to charging handle. I then mark the tube on the individual weapon so I know exactly where it needs to be without fiddling with it.

    9” for me with BCM gunfighter stock and LAW folding adapter (which equates to 2 clicks on my 6 position tube).

    I will say I've noticed that over the years I've grown to prefer shorter and shorter LOPs. The old dogma of "you'll shoot better with the all the way out" was tough to shake I guess, and for the longest time I ran only one notch in.

    Lately, I seem to be more the one-notch-from-collapsed type. If running LAW folder, I may leave it all the way in. I measured the other day for a project: from the face of the trigger I like around 300-310mm, right around one foot.
