I have a bug buster UTG 3x9 in mill the mill dot is big don't like it. I'd go with a Vector Veyron that has hash marks myself. The 4-16x44 is illuminated and will help out in shaded areas also. But remember for your rings the scope has to clear the height of your mags and if you remove the rear site you need to buy the small dove tail plate from Wes also.

I've had trouble getting the right eye relief with compact scopes. They won't slide back and forth in the rings much. Consequently your mounts must be perfect or you are hunting for the correct eye relief.
The Bug Buster has a very narrow eye box range that compounds the problem. If you can get one mounted on the rifle in the right spot they make OK scopes. Mine has a lot of distortion at the edges and the adjustments are coarse (3 clicks = 1" @100 yds.). I wasn't too impressed with it but it worked for a while.
The Bug Buster came with some good flip caps and a sunshade. That is a plus. It makes the scope almost as long as a regular scope though. I would rather have more adjustment room on a longer scope than the sunshade on a short one.
I like the Hawke scopes better but they are not that great either. You get what you pay for with either of them... not much. They aren't a "compact" scope so they mount easily and have much better glass. Anything in that price range is going to be a craps shoot. All will work. None are outstanding.

The scope on that L2 is an Athlon Midas BTR gen2 1-6x24. Got an IR. Great for fast acquisition, clear glass.

Gonna recommend this every time. Athlon Helos BTR GEN2 2-12X42. It's not the most compact scope out there but not bad at 11.8 inches in length. The reticle on this is awesome in the lower magnification ranges for close up work. Just remember, the shorter a scope is made, more optical compromises have to be given up.

Zero experience with this one I just seen it cruising the pages here and was intrigued.
6.6 inches 10 oz inexpensive, thinking I may have a spot for one .

Take note that the Spina Optics EU Website is defunct due to bad product and reviews. https://tinyurl.com/2aae58vd
Somehow they maintain to operate and sell product on USA Website https://a.co/d/eAZuQQr but take note of the review "China missed the point of a FFP completely" and "included rings came stripped on one ring" and "my turrets are very poor they're crisp, they're clean, but they are not quarter. Inch adjustments"
I've a Spina Optics SFP and a FFP. The SFP is ok. The FFP is a disaster in line with the above review comments.
These are cheap scopes good for plinking and not much more.
