Quoted: Well, I'm finally getting an ACOG next week (hopefully that's when it will arrive). I'd like to use the tip of the triangle to engage targets at longer ranges intended for this carbine (150-200m). If I zero the scope using the tip at this range, will I still be able to just place the body of the triangle on target at close range?

Those are great scopes, I ran with one for several years.
IMHO the best deal with the scope was to zero with the tip at 50y if mounted on a flattop. That gave you a precision aiming point (better then crosshairs IMHO) and the bullet stayed within 2" of that tip all the way out to 225y.
However at CQB you just put the triangle on the target and round would generally striked someplace within the triangle (depends on the size of your triangle).
If you're mounting the scope on a carry handle, then zero at 75y. It changes the offset up close (say out to 25 y) but the flat portion of the trajectory gets moved out a bit further. With a bit of hold over you can engage targets to 500m using that zero.
