I had a chance to shoot an H27D on loan to a military chap at the range where i shoot and while nice, It seemed like having the dot in the FFP was a hindrance at higher mag. This is obviously rectified by simply turning off the illumination when mag'ing up for longer shots. But knowing that the S&B 1-8 was going to address this issue made the S&B all the more attractive.
Overall I felt the H27D was a nice optic and I would probably buy one and be happy were it a $2500 item, but at $4k'ish it just left me feeling like it should have been better.
But I'm just a civilian shooter who appreciates quality. The CQBSS was obviously designed to fill a niche at the request of a particular user group. Not knocking it, just saying it isn't for me.
