Arken SH4 6-24
Athlon Helos BTR 6-24
Athlon Midas BTR 4.5-27
Bushnell Engage 6-24
Burris RT-25 5-25
My choice would be the Vortex Strike Eagle or the Arken EP5. Both have a lot of elevation to dial to farther ranges. If you shoot to 200 you will probably want to try farther and it's good to have the elevation.

If you're on ExpertVoice, they recently had the Athlon Ares UHD glass mil reticle 3-18x recently for well under $700. I don't know how often they put stuff "on sale" like that though.
I picked one up and am quite pleased. It tracks accurately and repeatedly so far, has down to 10 yards parallex, and the glass doesn't suck at all.
Attached File Attached FileAs a bonus, my Burris XTR rings were too high, and Arken 34mm rings were inexpensive and a perfect fit, with the scope .4 mils off center to the right when mounting.
I'm now a huge fan of zeroing at the indoor range. No wind makes it easy to get your windage zero dialed in.
