Generally speaking, I do two types of shooting. If I'm in the backyard, it's steel plates out to 300 yards with a 22lr. If I'm at a real range, I try to start around the 600 yard distance and confirm hits farther out. If I'm with a group of people doing drills it's inside of 50 yards because of the range restrictions because of our moving around. The 50 yard zero with a "point blank" range really doesn't do anything for me or what I hardly at all. I'm really not interested in shooting inside of 300 yards with a high power rifle, because it's just a big whooptie do.

Then why do you want an acog? It's not a precision optic. I think you'd benefit from some carbine skills and drills courses, because there is a lot of fun and practical training to be had within even 25 yards with an AR.
Agreed. I think you should be looking at 6x top side MINIMUM. If you want fast, and range, maybe the Trijicon 1-8 would be in your wheelhouse. If you only shoot 300 yards (speed is not an issue at 300) and beyond, for 2-10 etc.
