I am not saying you are wrong (maybe yes, maybe no), I am just saying I never heard that.  I have used a scope in some very warm placed, never worried about comparing same mag scopes with different objective sizes.

I am not aware of any effect that the objective lens diameter has on the mirage.

Are talking about the effect of a hot barrel? or about the mirage downrange?

Now that I think about it, if you are talking about the mirage due to the barrel getting hot, the large objective being closer to it, might pick it up more.

Here is an option at the bottom of your budget.

http://swfa.com/Meopta-4-16x44-MeoStar-R1-30mm-Rifle-Scope-P8001.aspx

Glass is competitive with your other options, and should tick all the boxes on your list.

If you want TAC turrets it is available with them also.  You can call SWFA...
