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.

I really like the eye relief of the TA55, but you are right that it is quite big for the rifle. After reading your post above, I went to check out the TS-22. I liked it, but I have been seeing a lot of people going to the NF Optics. My only experience with them was about 10 or so years ago when I saw them at a local funshow. Picked one up, looked in it, liked it until I saw the price tag. I gently put it down and ran.
Are they a tad better than the Leupolds in terms of quality of glass, ruggedness, or both?
I should be able to sell the TA55 for $1100 at minimum so I can direct those funds towards a TS-22, or a decent priced NF from MSTN
