So i think I'm finally going to pull the trigger. (see what i did there? I'm killing it over here!:)
Like you guys surely have, I have researched tirelessly all of these other scopes. There seems not to be this fine scopes equal. 
I went to the range yesterday with my Eotech/magnifier set up, and whilst changing yardages (50-100-200) it became apparent that that setup is just not up to snuff. The center dot is just not defined enough for 200+ yds. I'm range shooting and hog hunting in Texas mainly..
I have a DDV1 5.56 with a fixed from sight post.. I can take off/(change to a fold down rear sight) but the front sight isn't going anywhere. Is that going to be okay at 1x?
Also what mount do you all recommend?
TIA!

You will see your front sight til you reach near 4x then it will appear to focus beyond it, so it will just be a slight black blur.  Lots of people shoot them with a fixed front sight.  They are usable that way. 

Personally I am not a fan, and put folding sights on all my ARs.  They are not that difficult to change, and their are lots of good options.  Brownells and Youtube have lots of instructional videos on how to do it if you choose that route.
