I just bought a new ati Omni hybrid max 16” barrel chambered in 5.56(.223) and want to put a scope on it, mostly I’m gonna just be having fun with the gun at ranges up to 100 yards but I may want to use it for coyote/fox hunting sometime. I’m looking for suggestions on what scope’s(magnification, brand etc) I should look at for under $200 for it.

Check out Primary Arms with the ACSS reticle. There are several models including a predator specific one.

I like the Vortex CrossfireII 2-7x32 https://www.midwayusa.com/product/2420269142

I like the BDC retical but you wouldn't need it

the mount is important , you will want an extended cantilever mount or they can be hard to get far enough forward. especially if you shoot Nose to charging handle.

Vortex will give you a lot of scope and one designed for your platform.

You can drive to Barneveld and check out every scope they have, purchase one and I believe they will even mount it .

This is a good scope for the money. I have 5 of them on AR's and never a issue.
