Recently the cheap-o Leaper scope crosshairs started rotating with every shot. I really like the look of a compact scope on an AR, and for coyote hunting the cheap Leaper done the job. I started looking in Cabela's and Ebay to find a "Quality" compact scope all to NO avail. 2 Questions: #1 does anyone make a $200. (or less) compact scope. #2 How about the BEC line of scopes sold mainly in Sportsman Guide and Cheaper-Than-Dirt cataloges, are they worth having?
Show me some of your AR coyote outfits.....I may be won over to the look of a larger scope. denver*c
 
You might take a look at the Leaper's 5th Generation airgun scopes, they have some that are in the $150 range and being airgun rated, should hold up well to a centerfire rifle. I've got a 3-9x50 mounted on a heavy spring gun and it seems to be a nice scope and holding zero after about 100 rounds so far. I also have a 4x32 mini that is a cute little thing, it's not mounted though, it wouldn't mount on the airgun I had in mind. It provides a clear and crisp view and even has an AO!! They both have illuminated reticles and do exhibit some tube glow but it's not objectionable on the lower illumination settings. They come with flip-up lense covers, too.

Weaver makes a 1 X 3-20MM that is quite short in length and it's under $150. They also make a 2.5 -20mm that is right around $100. I've had them on light 35 Whelens and .375 Win. and they are quit reliable, not bad glass either.
