Over-engineering is what I'm seeing in the LPVO market today. FFP tree reticles need to stay on the usual longer-range scopes. Trying to make an LPVO a long-range scope is foolish. I've come to learn that asking anything to be dual purpose makes it not the very best at any one thing. Nothing with an eye-box should be used in CQB. You need something with an eye-box to hit past 600yds effectively.
To me, the Leupold VX6HD 1-6X24 with firedot duplex fits the dual-purpose curse the best. Shake awake dot, 16oz, 122ft FOV, simple ass reticle. Lose power and you still have visible crosshairs at every magnification. Want to shoot some distance crank the CDS dial.
