I like to keep things simple. When I got my first rifle, it had a 4x Burris. I just replaced an old 2.75 Redfield Widefield with a 4x Weaver on my .338-06. With your stated purpose, a 4x would give you the range and view you desire from close to 200 yards. IMO, Weaver is the best value going for the price. Weavers are on eight of my rifles.
