The Trijicon ACOG 3x24 Rifle Scope Crosshair .223 55gr Dual-Illuminated Red Reticle (SKU TA50-C-400351) is a compact fixed 3x ACOG with a 24 mm objective and a red crosshair carrying .223/55gr bullet drop marks, lit by fibre optics in daylight and a tritium lamp after dark with no battery of any kind.
How It Compares
The 3x24 is one of the shortest ACOGs at 4.9 in, and it pays for that with the shortest eye relief in the range — 1.4 in, so it wants mounting well forward of a service stock. The same optic with a green lamp is the ACOG 3x24 Crosshair .223 Green; for a different cartridge the ACOG 3x24 Crosshair 7.62x39 Red is cut for 123gr, and the red horseshoe dot replaces the crosshair with a horseshoe for faster close work.
