Ok, now that I have my beater trail gun, I'm looking at getting a beater trail scope. I'm looking for something that if I have a catastrophic incident, where it falls off the ATV and crashes into a boulder, I won't be sitting around pissed off for a week. I have some very nice scopes on some of my other AR's, but I don't need a $2400 ElcanDR, or anything like that. I also don't want the Walmart $39 super special, that's going to break after I cross my first boulder field with it. My gut instinct is to go with something around the $300 range, or less. Perhaps something like the Burris AR-536? https://www.opticsplanet.com/burris-...dot-sight.html I'm not crazy about this one, because I'm not crazy about the reticle. I think it would obscure to much of the target.

Suggestions on a scope that isn't going to break the bank, yet isn't a complete piece of shrapnel?
