I have an AR-15, 1:9, 16" barrel (Stag Arms so nothing too fancy) that I have staring me in the face in need of a medium range scope. I had a Trijicon Accupoint 3x9 on it but sold it to fund a NF for my .308. I also had an Eotech XPS 2-0 but never used it so I sold it as well. The Trijicon was the first scope I ever owned so I have no frame of reference as to compare it to others. I'm going to be taking some rifle classes and I "think" having a scope that ranges from 1-6 or 1-8 would be good to have since it can serve 2 purposes right? I would also use the scope to punch paper at lets say 100-300 yards max so I can try to fine tune my skills to help me be more efficient with my .308. Am I mistaken not mentioning a 3-9 or a 2.5-10? Lets say I'd be willing to spend max $600-$700 give or take $50.
Come to think of it, would it also be a better idea to get a more powerful scope and have a cheaper red dot as well (Primary Arms, Bushnell, Vortex etc..). I would be using the AR for more precision work.
