Scope for a .22-250

Need to purchase a scope for a .22-250.
What should I look for?
Don't want to break the bank on this.

All my .22 centerfires wear either 6-24X or 8-32X scopes.  Of course I like to be able to tell what sex the flea is on a Ground Squirrels ear at 300 yards.  For a real bargain go to http://www.leapers.com/pages/airgun%20sport/airgun%20scope.htm and check out the 8-32X56 30MM Range Estimating AO Mil-Dot(item #SCP3-832AOMD) from Leapers. Would make a great scope on top of a .22-250, especially for under $150.00.  Lawdog

Any thoughts on the Mueller: Eraticator 8.5-25x50, Fine-X Illum. Dot, Matte ?

Looks pretty nice for the price
