The course now includes the use of the ACOG scope as that is what we use in battle. Marines still do iron sites as well because you carry them with you and you never know when your ACOG might get smashed, but the qualification is now with your ACOG. I cannot tell you how much easier it is.
My vision was frankly barely up to 300M, though I could hit them. I would have had serious trouble with 500M. The ACOG seems like science fiction to me, cuz I'm freakin' old
