Have any of you shot for group size with a Trijicon BAC triangle post reticule?  Just curious how accurate you can be out to 2 or 300 yrds using the tip of the triangle.  Torn between the BAC and dot reticule...on a 2.5-10x56 Accupoint.  Reticule color favorites also welcome.

Depends on how well you can see and how accurately you can shoot your rifle, not your scope.
I can shoot as well with my TA01 ACOG on my Colt 6920 as I can with a larger 3x9 scope.

If you have poor eyesight you may have different results.

No...my understanding of the BAC reticules are that they are primarily designed and used for moving targets and quick shots.  Based on Trijicon being a big military supplier most are designed for larger targets not precision shooting.  I haven't been able to find the triangle post reticule on an Accupoint in stock around here to actually see it.  It seems though that the tip of the triangle could be used for having fun at the range and actually seeing some decent groups.  My eyesight is fine... is the tip of the triangle fine enough to actually produce results similar to crosshairs if all other variables were the same?

I've tried shooting groups with my chevron reticle at 100....

It's a daunting task ... Taping up the fiber tube helps, but it's still not easy. I can manage a fist sized group at 100 meters (30 rounds prone supported).

The Accupoint crosshair w/dot reticules are more precise than the triangle reticules.

Download this comparison chart as it lists the dimensions (in MOA) of each reticule.
