Don't worry about the harsh words. Every discussion board has people that fail to realize there is nothing new under the sun including questions on the internet. Everything they have asked about was probably also asked and answered in some previous thread on some forum somewhere.
I think the harshness may reflect the lack of specificity in your question. In the future you might consider puting down a little bit more detail about your experience or lack thereof, your intended application and any products you were considering.
I bought a Super Sniper 3-9 for my Armalite AR10T. i'm very happy for what I got for the money. I would try and get a scope with 12-15 on the top end the extra power is really nice for greater distance. I have done fine with 9 power at 750 yards but would have rather been able to crank it up to 15. Conversely if you go to high in power on the bottom end of the range you will sacrifice field of view and compromise the effectiveness of your stick at closer range.
These would be my recommendations based on your stated use and the long range potential of the rifle.
Weaver illuminated FFP mil 3-15 illuminated EMDR reticle
midwayUSA with SH disount code or liberty optics
Bushnell 3-12 FFP liberty optics or ProMotive.com with your .mil E-mail address
Vortex 4-16 PST mil FFP
Liberty optics
Super Sniper 3-9
SWFA use the SSHIDE code to get it for $540
I'm running the Armalite 30 mm one piece mount that came with my gun. I lapped it and it works great. I would also recommend Larue or ADM mounts for an AR.
Good luck you will be happy with any of these choices.

see, this guy understands... we need more than, "I need a scope for my XXX, and I want to shooot YYY distance".... and it's not repeat topics we hate, it's ones that are repeated DAILY... if 3 guys posted this question yesterday, and you do it again today... you're a fucking retard!
and you're still a punk for implying that you couldn't do any research because you were deployed. in the time you've wasted on this POS thread, you could have at least asked an informed question...
