I don't know what your intended use ( this, IMO, should determine your choice ) but for the money, I think it's tough to beat Leupolds VX-Freedom 1x4.
$200. Super light. Leupold quality and clarity. And the difference between 4x and 6x, IMO, is pretty negligible, especially in exchange for such a lightweight LPVO. I have a 1x6 primary arms illuminated LPVO and I love it also, but would change it out for the Leupold in a heartbeat if the rifle didn't already weigh a metric shit ton. Oops.
I like the name. Maybe we need a backup sub with that name.
There’s actually a store called Michi-Gun.
And of course the decals I see many people driving with 😂 https://www.amazon.com/Michigan-Mitten-Vinyl-Decal-Sticker/dp/B07QDJSG2N

i'm Envisioning some kind of grown up version of the Shatterblast target systems that Daisy sells for air rifles.

just needs to hold up to rifle and shotgun fire... but i think my dream will be crushed by the clays getting vibrated to death inside the enclosed feeder when rounds strike it... Might work for birdshot though.
