As you increase magnification, you need to gather more light to maintain the brightness of the sight picture. This requires larger and larger objective lenses (among other things) as a general rule.
All ACOGs have great glass and are plenty bright. Buy the one you want and don't worry about it, 'cause you'll be happy with the glass either way. -Troy |

Don't forget about eye relief and exit pupil size. These are typically much greater on the 3.5 scopes. Depending on your shooting style, you may notice this much more than the 14% more magnification.
