Hi Hunter101,

How much money do you want to spend?

Do you have a preference of what brand you like?

How about the reticle/crosshair? Different brands will have different options for reticles.

I don't know about magnification.  I found out today, that I can hit a paper targer gopher at 100 yards just as easy with 6 power as with 18 power, but I like the higher power for visual effect.

So here's some questions for you to think about.

Have a good one

I would say consider a 3-9 or close to it:

 

Leupold VX-II

Weaver Grand Slam

Bushnell Elite 3200

Burris Fullfield II

 

Or if you can swing it look at the Zeiss Conquest 3-9x40.
