I have a Strike Eagle but find the reticle too busy for my liking. The edge to edge clarity isn't there but it is still okay glass if you can get past the reticle. I still own one but I really like my Bushnell 6500 1-6. If you are going to be upgrading for the future I would recommend it. It has the illuminated 4A single dot with the fine cross hairs. It is fast for close up shots and the dot is small enough for 300 yard shots.
The Leupold Mark AR is good glass for the price and I've shot a friend's rifle with one. For a brief time I had a Leupold VX II 1-4 mounted on a rifle before I put it back on a Marlin 336.
For me magnification is a must but you still need the low end power for close up shots. The 1-4 or 1-6 scopes are just about right.
