Springer air rifle scope suggestions

Does anyone have any good suggestions for a target rifle scope in MRAD that is "springer rated".

My criteria would be:
Parallax down to 10m min
First focal plane or fixed magnification
Target reticle in MRAD
Springer rated (Going on an HW77 .177)
Budget would be around 400$ (I have other money pit guns already)

How I intend to use this:
Target shooting out to 100m max mostly out to 50m
Some pest control


I reached out to arken to see if thier LH-4 can handle a springer with bidirectional recoil impulse.
 
I just picked up a vortex 5-25x56 venom and it's amazing for the 400$ I paid on Amazon like 4 days ago. ffp, mil/mil, zero stop, 10 yard parallax, etc.
 
When Athlon first came on the scene I asked if they’d warrant a Midas on a Weihrauch gas ram. They said “go for it and let us know if you have any issues.” None to date.
 
I use Hawke Vantage and Airmax scopes on my Weihrauch, Diana and Air Arms Springers. All my springers are 22 caliber for hunting. I have nailed a problem coyote with a head shot from my Diana 54 Air King with a Hawke Vantage 4-16x50 illuminated scope.
 
Any Athlon except Talos or Neos Or Hawke Airmax compact are good. I use both with no problems and their warranty will back them up
