[QUOTE="DestructoJr, post: 836972, member: 4479"] The 512 is still a parallax free sight so once zero'd anything over 20-25m no matter how your cheek weld/eye relief changes where the red dot is on the sight is where the round is going. If the sight appears to be up and higher its still shooting where the dot is aiming. I would recommend the magnifier. I have had no problems engaging targets up to 600 yards with no magnifier with my 512 I would assume it would only make things easier. Dont get me wrong I love ACOG's and think they are a very valuable tool however in a cqb environment they are not exactly ideal, while engagings targets in an enclosed room is still easily doable at those ranges the point and shoot method works well all you need to do is put the fuzzy red reticle over the target and you will hit a man sized target no problem. I submit to you that you could even do it shooting from the hip. Is the purpose of your rifle home/zombie defense where you will most likely be using the sight as for faster target aquisition or are you using this weapon for plinking/target practice and fun?
