i agree with TR also, based on my much more limited experience. i have 3 aimpoint comp Ms, an eotech 551 rev E, and an ACOG TA01NSN (but i've shot the TA31F). i found it relatively easy to get hits on 12"x18" steel at 300 yds (zero'd at 50) from the bench (supported) with both the eotech and aimpoint, so at least i know the rifle/ammo/optic combo can do it under optimal conditions, and the rest is up to me. any farther than that and my eyesight needs help from magnified optics.
i actually liked the reticle of the eotech better - my astigmatism makes the aimpoint dot a bit out-of-round. the smaller 1MOA eotech dot was also a bit easier to center on targets.
the ACOG is great, and in retrospect i'd go with the TA31F with donut instead of the TA01NSN if i had to do it over as the TA31F is more versatile at closer ranges.
twilight and lower light conditions is where the extremely clear and magnified optics of the ACOGs shines. when it was getting dark, and the dot of the eotech and aimpoint made it very difficult to pick out targets (due to contrast), the ACOGs would make target ID and hitting them possible.
i'd vote for the TA31F, based on the use you stated.
cheers,
MM
