I have a couple of 3x9 Revolutions and plan to get a 2x7 for my muzzleloader, I am very happy with the 3x9's and would expect the same for the 2x7.

I am also looking at the VX2 2x7 CDS for my 22" barreled EW and two 22" barreled 700's, the 3.5x10 CDS seems too long on the EW so I am moving it to a 24" barreled rifle.

Question for anyone, is the eyebox on the VX2 2x7 better than the 3x9 Ultralight?

If you can find a Burris 2-7 with the 3P#4 I think you'll be pleased. The reticle really stands out in low light. Another used option in your price range is a Burris Signature/Pentax Lightseeker 2-8. I have one and I'm very pleased with it. I picked it up used for cheap and sent it in to Burris and had the #4 put in.

Under $200.00, 1. Redfield 2-7, 2. Nikon.

Own several of both eye relief goes to Redfield, glass goes to Nikon.

Don't know if it's the best but the newest Leupold VXI would seem to have the eye relief and reticle you want at a reasonable price. Optics seem better than the older VXIs.
