I'm looking for a scope with these requirements:

-costs $650 or less
-long eye relief (~4" or more)
-50mm objective
-30mm tube
-variable magnification with a maximum power of 16-24x
-tactical adjustment knobs
-mil-dot reticle

I am currently leaning toward a Bushnell Elite 6500 2.5-16x42 Tactical scope, even though it doesn't fill my 50mm objective requirement. If anyone can recommend a few scopes that fill these specifications I would much appreciate it.
 
Re: Looking for scope recomendations, please.

You don't need a 50mm unless you plan night shooting. Nikon, Bushnell, a used Leupold all will work. Once you get past 16X or so quality really become important.The 6500 is a great scope and can often be found well discounted on Ebay. good shooting
