Pretty much what the title says, I am looking for a really great all round optic set up for my new 16" ar-15 223 wylde build. I am really odd in that I am south paw (left eye dom, shoot right) so a generous eye relief and eye box is important to me. I'd like something with an etched reticle so if my batteries ever die or the electronics get messed up I can still use it in the end times. I was originally thinking of doing an Eotech holo with a mag but their really short eye relief is kind of a turn off when I want to look down range. I do plan on running some short to mid ranged drills with friends, maybe some 3 gun down the road. So, I have been looking at LPVO's.

So far, I am really on the fence about the Trijicon Credo HX 1-6 SFP. It looks exactly like what I am looking for but it's hard to find videos of reviews or people who have used it. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
 
Any reason you're looking at the Credo HX over the standard Credo? My understanding is that the HX is more hunting oriented. That being said, there's quite a few reviews of the Credo 1-6 on YT and other places, so it's not hard to research, by all accounts it's a good scope.

Other 1-6's that have gotten favorable reviews are the Vortex Razor HD Gen II, Stryker 1-6, SAI 1-6, it goes on. Check out this guy's channel, he has some good content with LPVO's:


There's also this channel that has good comparisons and through the scope views


Good luck
