Any scope designed for a center fire rifle will work as far as managing recoil. I would suggest that you go with a variable ... something on the "low end" range like a 1.5-6 and 40 mm.

Buy the best quality that youcan afford. I am not a fan of the BDC type reticles. Just too busy for me. I have had no issues with managing the arc. Unless you are trying a really long shot - 200 yards plus, the arc is no big deal. You just have to have a good ide of where the bullet's point of impact will be at various intervals.

I like the heavy plex because these are easy to pick up in low light and brings my eye to the target quickly. Around $250-$300 you should be able to buy a pretty good scope.

My recommendation is a Ziess Conquest. A 40 mm Ziees variable can usually be had in the $450--$500 range and I think is a very good value.
