I have a Nikon M223 1-4x. It's got great glass (I believe the same as their Monarch series), and the dot in the center really helps to draw your eye to it. It also is calibrated so that with the turn of a dial, you go from zeroed at 100 to 200 with a 55 gr. bullet. Overall a nice scope that can be had around $250 or maybe a little more or less depending on how much homework you do.

Then again, I'm about to sell mine because I want a little more magnification.

This might help. Some (but not all) would fit. http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_3_18/493447_.html

Has NO equal in its price range.  I destroyed the 100, 200, and 500yd targets at a recent 3gun with this $299 scope.

Another +1 for the Vortex.  I just got the PST.  Clear as can be and a great reticle.
