Bushnell?

I'm looking for a red dot sight for my M&P15A. I don't want to spend half of what the gun is worth on an optic. And I'm not going into battle. I was hoping on something that I could have had the option of magnification as well but I haven't found anything under $300. I've found the Bushnell 1x28 Trophy Red Dot for under $100 and it looks like it is good quality. Any experience with these or something better to suggest?
 
If U can't afford the $335 or so of an N Battery Eotech, get the Bushnell clone of the EOtech. It just doesn't have the protective cage. If U look around online, U should be able to find a decent price.
 
I've had the Trophy, along with Tasco and BSA, and all didnt hold up to well. My Trophy had the multi reticules, which did not hold zero between them when switched, for some reason. Battery life on all of them was pretty short too.

I know that the better ones seem more expensive, but in the long run, they are well worth the extra money. Personally, I prefer Aimpoints and have replaced all the others with them. Just for battery life alone, (1 -5 years of 24/7 on depending on model) its worth it, but the difference is obvious once you've used them.

My suggestion is bite the bullet and buy, or save up for the better one and be done with it. It comes off just as easily as it goes on and will still work for years down the road on anything else you might want to use it on. If I had done it right off, I would have one or two more at this point for the money I spent on the others.
