If you are on a budget, I would go primary arms 4-14x for a variable power or SWFA fixed 10x. I have owned both and they are both great value scopes that will fit your requirements. If you can wait until fall and save a little more I would try to get in on SWFA's Black Friday sale. They always do 20% off their branded scopes. Then you could get into the SWFA 3-15x42. This will run you about $550 on sale, and you won't regret it.
