Detailed thoughts down here!
It's really hard to lime a scope up with a camera.
First things first, GA Firing Line gave me the homie hookup on this. I recommend giving them a call if you're in the market.

They have NODs and gun mufflers and stuff too.
On to business. I had the pleasure of shooting this thing earlier this year, taking it from the 15 all the way to the 500. It's almost like cheating. Being used to the ACOG, up close you sometimes had to fish for your target, and on the long shots you sometimes wished for ever so slightly more magnification. This fixes all of that, just at the cost of weight. Best be picking heavy things up and putting them down if you want to use this optic effectively.
The glass is top knotch. Now that I'm thinking back… I've not used a bad optic in the Marine Corps. Whether that be Schmidt and Bender, Leopold, Eotech… uh… I'm sure there's been more I'm forgetting. Anyway, great glass. But 1x is a little weird, so I usually leave it on 1.5x or 2 and just dial up as needed. I haven't had a chance to use it with NODs yet, nor could I find any passive aiming pictures, but the SCO does come with NV settings (I'm trying to get Sionyx to send me their new digital NV… I don't think it's gonna happen tho).
It's an LPVO. It doesnt really do anything new. The mounting system is pretty neat. This optic isn't the best at any one thing. But it's very good at everything, and when you run out of boolets it's robust enough you can use it as a bludgeon.
The takeaway you should have from this is that the Marine Corps has a great track record with picking optics. And the SCO is no exception.
Can't wait to get some shooting footage. It's going on my black friday build. See you all in that video!
