I'd suggest the Leupold M8 2.5x28mm IER. Small and light, decent field of view, plenty of eye relief. Last forever even on a 12 gauge.

Shotguns with the kinda loads you are planning to use deliver wicked recoil as you already know. Cheap scopes are not intended for use on such heavy recoiling guns. I'd not buy any of the cheaper scope lines for use on such a gun unless the manufacturer specifically suggests it for such use.
