I think you would be well suited with a Schmidt & Bender Zenith 1.1–4 x 24 (or the equivulent 1.25-4 Swarovski, as long as you stick to the newer ones with 90mm of eye relief). The eye relief on the S&B Zenith is 3.7 inches, which is more than enough IMO.

I'd choose the S&B #7 "Flashdot" reticle (which is what I bought last spring).

I see no reason to not get an illuminated reticle, as it functions just like a normal reticle when it's switched off. Yet it's way better in dusk/dawn situations against dark coloured animals then a normal reticle. Actually, it shows up much better against dark coloured animals no matter what time of the day, so I fail to see the downside some people think there is with illuminated reticles. Note though that not all illuminated reticles are created equal. Some are much better than others, and this is usually reflected by their price...
