I have a Bushy Dissipator (16") with an Evans break.  I would like to add a sight but am still new enough to need some help.

I looked at a Trijicon (3 actually) yesterday and was amazed at the sight picture and clarity.  The problem is, which one?  My shooting is all 250 yrds and less but I like a little magnification.  

To be more specific, what model do you suggest and why?  And what does ACOG stand for?  Having never owned a scope, how important is it forthe scope to be round specific ( set up for a particular bullet weight)?

Thanks for your help.  I have looked on the adds page,  I just don't understand what I am looking at.

A 2x or 3x compact ACOG or the 4x full size ACOG model which has the fiberoptic aided BAC feature would best suit your needs.  ACOG stands for Advanced Combat Optical Gunsight & BAC stands for Bindon Aiming Concept. I can't explain how it works but the BAC is the only way to go for a multipurpose combat optic like the ACOG.

I would go with the 4x32 ACOG, I have a TA01 with a TA51 mount on my flattop RRA uppers......it's a bit bigger then the compact ones, besides what BrightFlashlights siad about them, it also has a bullet drop compensator in it, which is nice if you find a range that has 300 or more meter range lanes. it also gives you a bit more field of view then the compact one.

As the guys have said above a Trijicon is an excellent choice.  If you're looking for something for less money you might have a look at the IOR line maybe a 4X (fixed power) from memory they run about $350-$400.
