The closest decent spotting scope anywhere near that price is the Nikon Prostaff, the 60x versions is over $500. Not a premium scope by any means, but servicable. I can see 30cal and 6.5mm at 200yds. A premium scope can cost $3000+. I have heard some good things about the Vortex budget scope. I do use a Vortex PST and it has glass comparable to the Nikon and Leupold scopes that I use. Not that it applies to spotting scopes.
