Weaver V series...made in Japan, about $160, depending on what you get
Sightron S1 3x9x40 mildot, made in Japan, $110. (now $119...musta been on sale when I got it).
Simmons Aetec, older models assembled in Philippines with Jap. glass, but newer ones assembled in China. I paid $129 for mine...they're more expensive now, but if you look around, you might find one at about the same price.
I've got all 3 of these, and they are very good scopes for the money. The Japanese glass is really nice...you'll be surprised. My V series 2x7 is actually clearer than my Accupoint, when trying to read the license plate on the guy down the street's minivan. That's as scientific a test as you're liable to find.
Seriously, at 4x, I can read the decal from the place he bought it, which I can't do with the Accupoint. In no way am I comparing this scope to an Accupoint, but in terms of the glass, it's not a POS.
The Nikon Pro Staff line is in that price range...I have a Buckmaster, which I really like, but I paid $237 dealer for that, so it's way out of your budget limits.
