Between the 16X and 12X, I prefer the 12X myself. Brighter, better resolution, bigger FOV, easier eyebox, more travel.
I shoot it well beyond 1000 a fair amount, The MQUAD reticle is fine enough to get 'er done.
If you would like to try out my 16X mildot/moa scope to get a feel for the 16X, I'd be happy to mail it to you. Of course the MQUAD version has a finer reticle than my old mildot. You could use it and either send it back later, or if you wanted to buy it, we could work that out too.
