Scope choices?

Question

So I have decided on a 1-6x24 or 1-8x24 scope. Problem is I’m not sure what exactly to get. My maximum range is about $700. I have narrowed it down to these:

If you have any recommendations not in that list let me know and I’ll take a look. There were a few more around that price range and even more expensive but I left them out because I didn’t care for the Recticles. I’m leaning towards the US optics or Meopta. I’d like to get the NightForce ATACR but thats nearly 3K and I can’t justify paying that much. I could literally buy 6000 rounds of 5.56 for that. I’d have to take a loan out. And while the EOTech Vudu is a lot less expensive At $1200 I don’t like the Recticle on it.
