Best Scope in the $800 Range

Just as the heading states. I am looking for the best bang for my buck in the $800 range. I want FFP, mil/mil knobs, Christmas tree reticle, and reliable. Used is ok as long as it has a good warranty. Any ideas?
 
That's a tall order for your budget with those options. Vortex makes scopes in your price range with the options that you want but their glass clarity takes a crap especially at higher magnification. I hear great things about the sightron III series. I'd probably start there.
 
Sightron... You may not get all of the features that you want in that price range, but you can get most of tem. Also Check out the Bushnell Elite 6-24. They make one with a FFP hold over reticle that you can sometimes find as lo as about $900
 
Scope like many thing "you get what you pay for." Low-end scopes deliver low-end results. A little more money allows you to move to very good optics with Vortex. I have Nightforce and three PST Vortex scopes. I find all four to do excellent jobs, low light or no. The difference is there are no low-end Nightforce scope, all are superb. Cheaper Vortex as crossfire and sub PST fall under the category of getting what you pay for.

+1 Bushnell Elite Tactical 6-24x50 FFP .1mil adj G2DMT reticle 30mm.......there are discount % coupons around to come close to your price.
However, for me the optics are crystal clear, and very bright. I was shocked at the clarity and brightness. And of course FFP makes it a range finder at any power. An amazing scope.
 
I have a bushnell elite ffp 6-24 with G2 sitting here unused if you want to go that direction.
