Consider a Vortex 4-12x50 Cossfire with BDC reticle instead. Magnification isn't that important at 300 and under. The larger main lens will give you a 4.1mm ocular diameter at max power, where the 6-18x44 gives you 2.4mm. I think you'll find the 4-12x50 easier to work with, and more forgiving on eye relief.

Also, if you want some quality glass for not too much money, I say take a look at the Swift 4-12x40 Tactical scope. It has Schott glass, and a 3.3mm ocular diameter at max power. SWFA has the Swift at a very reasonable price, and it comes with side parallax focus.

Another option would be the 4-12x42 Redfield Revenge with AccuVarmint reticle, although it lacks a parallax adjustment.

Hope this helps,
Jimro
