For $400, I would get this scope for varminting.

Excellent recommendation. I would wholeheartedly agree.
500 yards is pretty far for .223. You'll need a scope with turrets and reliable tracking. Calgunner Beetle Bailey has had great success with this scope ontop of his Savage, killed many squirrels using the scope.
P.S. Buy from Scott @ Liberty Optics and mention you're a Calgunner.Comment

Like others said, Nikon makes great scopes for great prices. The glass on them is very nice. I recently replaced my Buckmaster went with a Millet TRS-1 though and really like it. You should give them a look. For $300 and all the features it has, its a steal.Comment

Burris Fullfield II with the varminter reticle. I have the 4.5-14X50 on my varmint AR and the glass compares very favorably to 50% more expensive scopes. The adjustments are dead-on all the way around the box.Frank
