Anything FFP is going to be cheap Chinesium junk at that price. Go with Vortex Strike Eagle or new Venom if you have to have zoom as they have one of the best warranty's.

I'd recommend a fixed magnification optic like the SWFA for your budget:

SWFA 12x42 SS 30mm Riflescope

SWFA 12x42 SS 30mm Riflescope Details SKU: SS12X42MOA Finish: Matte Reticle: MOA-Quad Tube Diameter (mm): 30 Elevation Knob: Exposed Target (1/4 MOA) Windage Knob: Exposed Target (1/4 MOA) Parallax Setting: Rear Focus Focal Plane: Second

Then when you've saved up some penny's get a good Japanese scope like the Bushnell LRHS/LRTS series or Vortex PST II series (Philippines)

Athlon Optics Talos BTR 4-14x44 - APLR2 FFP IR MIL
FEATURES

• Illuminated Reticle: The illuminated reticle provides greater visibility during dusk and dawn and other low ambient light environment.
• Etched Glass Reticle: Reticle etched on the glass that provides excellent backing support for complex reticle design and offers great durability and much higher shock resistance to recoil
• Fully Multicoated: Fully Multicoated optics effectively reduces reflected light and increases the transmission of light giving you a brighter image than normal single coated lenses
• Aircraft Grade Aluminum: Aircraft Grade Aluminum provide extra strength and durability to handle the toughest terrain and offers lifetime of use.
• Heat Treated One Piece Tube Construction: Heat treated one piece tube gives the scope extra strength over multi-piece tubes. A one piece tube also is better at keeping moisture out thus keeping your scope fog proof for the life of the product
• Waterproof: Waterproof to protect the scope in the harshest weather conditions or if accidently submerged underwater
• Fog proof: Fog proof to allow you to immediately engage your target when you take your rifle to cold ambient temperature from warm inside
• Shockproof: Robust mechanical system with special designs on both control and erector system that give you the ultimate recoil resistance to withstand 1000G recoil for 1000 times.
• Nitrogen Purged: Nitrogen purging dramatically reduces the moisture inside the tube and helps maintaining fogproof and waterproof.

I owned a Vortex Diamondback tactical 4-16 and it did everything I needed it to. Not bad glass, good reticle. You can find them slightly used around $300

Save your money up and get a scope that could do well at 400-600 yards.

SWFA 10x

Meaning the SWFA 12X

Avoid the 16X

Scopes are like hookers. You settle on the cheap one, but soon as you hand over the cash, you realise you should have saved up and gone for the expensive one.

I just put a Athlon Midas Tac 6x24 on my 7mm and I'm very impressed. I paid around $650. I compared it to a friends Vortex Viper PST Gen2 at the range and I like the turrents better on the athlon. The glass seemed the same but it was also in the middle of the day. I had it out at dusk this weekend and on high magnification it was very clear.

I saw 2 different versions a 30mm and a 50mm, which do u have? I watched a few reviews I like this one Thanks u rock

Sometimes the lack of teeth adds a little something you didn't realize you were missing.

Another vote for the SWFA 10x.
