I have an AR that is used for occasional PRS type matches at a maximum of 1000 yards. I have a Bushnell LRTS 4.5 - 18 and a Nightforce SHV 4-14 F1.
Which would be the best choice for this application?
 
Bushnell lrtsi 4.5-18

but i’d 3-12 and reap it’s smaller form factor and lose nothingat the 1k line
 
I use the lrts 4.5-18 for prs in the Dmr division Last year. It worked great. I didn’t feel it held me back at all. I’d get the the lrts over the lrts-I. The center crosshairs are thinner on the lrts. I find myself never using illumination and the thinner reticle is nicer for shooting groups or dot drills.
