I have an EOtech on mine, thinking about switching to a Trijicon Accupoint though.

Will this be for more up close and fast shooting or longer range and more precise shooting?

Geez that's a nice rifle but my custom shop rifle is half the price and has more features! I still like their 6.8 mags though.
Anyways if it close up aimpoint. If shooting far leupold. If you got a long barrel I don't see the point in putting a red dot on it as you have more range.

Moses uses EoTech's and prefers the larger reticle over the small dot 
I say handle both the Aimpoint and EoTech's. If you are looking at EoTech's then make sure you are looking at the models that use the 123A battery.

I really like the new Burris 1-4 Tac30. Its got the true 1x and such a massive FOV at 1x that it can easily be used as a point sight. Plus its got the 4x which is always nice to have too.
Though I dont have one mounted on a Barrett (lucky dog you)
