Best Optic rimfire m4?

I just picked up a tricked out rimfire m4 trainer. It won’t be shooting beyond 400m. The idea is to save money on ammo and replicate the real deal I use in the military.
Just wondering what would be the best optic between:
* Aimpoint Comp m5
* Elcan Specter DR
* EOTech 553
* Sig Romeo 4XT-Pro
Price is not really a concern in the decision.
 
I have shooting the comp m5 and EOTech recently. It comes down to do you want a single red dot or the reticle options of the EOTech. I personally like the 553 for multi-range stuff and the m5 for close to known distance.

As it is not probably going out beyond 300m a LPVO is probably overkill. I do like the option of having a small amount of magnification and hash marks or BDC. Unfortunately, given it’s a rimfire the BDC would not really line up ballistically.
