Scope with target dot or better yet, floating dot ?

Looking for a scope for Mini-McQueens.
The match is shot at 50 metres and target is small with the v-bull being about .2"
I am considering the 8-32 Nightforce Benchrest model for 2 reasons -
It can be had with the np2 2dd reticle which is a floating dot
It can be focused down to 25 yards ( I also shoot at a short indoor range )
Any other scopes come to mind ? That have a floating dot type reticle ? That can focus at 25 yards ?

I have 3 Vortex golden eagles on my 308's. I also have 2 March scopes & far prefer the floating dot on the Vortexes.
When speaking with a distributor at the great shooting show the man said that the golden eagle is also used by air gunners so can focus at short distances. I don't know anything about mini Mcqueens but seem to remember zooming out (almost to maximum) to enable me to see the whole of the castles when shooting at 300yrds.
Not sure if it helps but I'm at Bisley on the 7th so you can try mine before you commit to buying.

Looks like too much magnification. Thanks anyway,
