basic scope needed

[FluorideInMyWater]

i'd like to get a scope for my AR. i guess something i can qualify out to 500yrds with, but that i could also transfer to a remington-700 to possible go out to 1000 (?) if that is even possible

can u suggest a few scopes for me?
thanks!!!!

Nikon $400ish, but... .whats your budget?? $250? $1500??
Bushnell? 4200 series

regardless maybe 4-16 power? anyone else?
