Looking for a compact, AO scope in matte finish, optix from 1-8/9 power, quality glass is MUST, all my glass is leupold/burris/nikon,Zeiss, and leica binos...

open to some of the newer stuff with good reps, just point me in the right direction, thanks fellas.

scope will be on older ruger 77-22kpr stainless, i got one of the first released, sn* is 000490, shoots a 1.5moa at a 100 with CCI MINIMags.....

thanks, for any input...finkle

Edit:

Yes, 2-3x on lower end is fine, I guess I’ve alway equated quality glass with reliability?

Yeah, need a budget.

If budget isn’t an issue, I have. Nightforce NX8 1-8 that I love. It’s on an AR.
It’s very compact and light the glass is great.

Why? It's a gun site. Reliability is the only important thing.

I would ask yourself if you absolutely need 1x at the low end, and if you don't consider a 2-10 or a 2.5-10. You can get better glass for the same money by going with a smaller zoom ratio.
