    The best low powered sighting device in that budget is a set of decent irons.

    I'll probably get blasted for this. I've had a Bushnell Banner 1.5-4.5 and I shit you not have taken it out to 800+ with my buddy helping me dialing in. Nothing fancy just a normal crosshairs type deal but has held surprisingly strong.

    Leupold Mark AR.

    NOT under $200, but the cheapest low power scope I'D put on an AR.

    What about nikon m-223 or p-223? I've heard pretty good things about them.

    Someone posted a thread here not long ago. $200 scopes and you could chose which power you wanted. Started at 1-4 and went up to 20x.

    I can't for the life of me find it though.

    Slightly higher priced but I think the Weaver Super Slam Dangerous Game 1-5x is outstanding for the price. $330 at Amazon right now, which is much cheaper than everywhere else, and there is a $50 rebate from Weaver. 30mm tube and in my opinion better glass and brightness than the Mark AR and M223. Great deal for under $300 net.

    For NON defense use, the leupold mark AR and Nikon monarch lines are OK.
