I might possibly be deployed to Afghanistan later this year (depends on another unit we are supposed to be back filling) I want to get an ACOG for the mission as while I am no slouch with the iron sights (38 out of 40 on my last qual) I'm absolutely unstoppable with optics.
heres the problem, we don't know what we are going to be issued yet, M4s, M16A2s or A4s. I talked to a rep from trijicon and he said that each ACOG is calibrated for a paticular barrel length, bullet weight and mounting position. my question is this what is the trajectories for a 62 grain bullet out of a 16 and 20 inch barrel? say out to 600 meters.
the main reason why I ask is that I plan on getting a civilian M4gery at some point in the future, and would like to mount the ACOG on that as well, and while I could get a 20" barrel, I'd like to go with the 16" first. If the differences of trajectory between the two isn't major out to 600 meters I'll go with the one I was initialy looking at
