I'll go ahead and be the glass snob and recommend you save your money for something good.
I too used to use cheap glass and figured it as "good enough." $200 and less was my price range. That changed when Natchez has a sale on the Weaver Classic Extreme line of scopes for about $300 shipped. It was out of my usual price range but for a $550 optic it was a [beeep] of a deal so I decided to give it a try. There was a night and day difference between it and all of my other scopes. One of those being a Bushnell Banner by the way. The same night that I received my new Weaver I placed another order to get a second in a different power range. I didn't even need the higher powered scope for anything at the time but it was a great deal and I knew that I would put it on something eventually.
Now if this wasn't in the night hunting section I wouldn't have bothered you with this and just said go ahead with the Bushnell Banner. Mine has served me well afterall. However, the big difference with a quality optic comes at night. A good optic will actually function as a light bucket and when you look through it you will get a brighter picture of what you are looking at than what you can see with the naked eye. None of my cheaper scopes did this. The Weaver on the other hand is excellent. It makes finding, identifying, and following your target so much easier. If you use this 22mag with any regularity spend the money on a decent optic for it. You will be a better shooter because of it. At the very least step up to the Elite 3200 line with the firefly reticle.
My Weaver Classic Extreme scopes both have illumination on them and I rarely use it. The one on my AR replaced a Millett DMS-1 and I used the illumination on it every time. With the Weaver I forget to turn it on. I just don't need it because of how bright of an image I get through it. The crosshairs pop on their own with great contrast. The illumination just adds extra weight to the scope.
