For a target scope i would want more than 9x on the high end. That said, your best bet would be a Nikon prostaff 4-12x40. I have been seeing them all over online for 170-200. The glass in that scope is much better than any of the cheap blister pack chinese scopes. You cant buy a burris, vortex, leupold etc. with 12X for that price. Weaver is also another decent possibility. I have no real experience with their new lines of scopes. I have heard the redfield revenge scopes are not as nice as the Revolution line of scopes. Im sure the Revenge scopes would be very functional to get you started though.
