Ooops... too late! I got rid of my 10x42mm and purchased the TA55 because I figured that I wouldn't shoot anything over 600M with the SPR anyway.

Seeing it by itself was one thing, but I just didn't realize how big that ACOG was until I installed it on my rifle. Awesome piece of glass though. I have to admit, I've been eyeing the Illuminated Leupold Mark 4 (6.5-20x50mm) pretty hard lately. If my eye continues to itch anymore, I might get rid of the TA55 for it.
The TA55 is too big of a glass for that rifle, and not enough magnification for me.

The Leupy 6.5-20x is too much mag.

What is wrong with the dedicated optic designed for that weapon, the TS-22 (Leupold 3-9x36 Mark 4 MR/T 30mm)?

If you have the $ and like extreme precision, the Nightforce NXS 2.5-10x is a very nice option. The 3.5-15x is also a nice piece of glass, but it a little large and more mag than most need for a 5.56mm.

HTH.
