Burris discontinued their 2-7 power Fullfield II scopes a couple of years ago.

About the only mid-tier, short, light weight scope in 2-7 power still in production is the Leupold VX Freedom.

I love my Burris 3x9 full field. It was less than 150 if I remember correctly
Another viable 2-7 option, but a little pricey. Very generous eye relief. Buy once, cry once and be done with it for years to come.

I've had a fixed 4x Simmons shotgun scope on my ML for 20 years. Even put one on my turkey gun. I thought 4x might be too much for 25 yard shots but it has worked well.
Eye relief is key for me. Hate getting slapped across the nose. The Simmons has about 4", but the Burris mentioned above said it had about 10. Never had one with that much, but sounds intriguing.

Traditions 3-9×40 $70 I own 2. For anything under 200yds they've worked great for me Crystal clear view, good in low light and rain. Year after year they ar always on
I've read some good reviews as well. I shoot a 1.75-6 Leu on my 358 win that I consider perfect in the woods.
I shoot a Leupold 4x33 on my Encore muzzleloader. I've killed them from 7 steps to 201yds.
This is my typical type of spot so a 4-6x range works great. That's my left sleeve in the pic. A big doe was on a fast walk through and I caught her in the opening she is laying in.

I grew up using Taco. I didn't even know there was any other scope manufacturers until I bought my left hand 243 Savage and it came with a Nikon. I recently bought a couple of the rim fire for a couple of plfor inkers/ squirrel rifles. Seeing as how the old Taco's have served me well for 60 years or so I will be replacing a red/green spot with a Taco. Seriously if you want a good inexpensive scope for a kid you might want to look at these. https://tasco.com/rifle-scopes/
