Why not build one, it will give better results than a gen 1 and cost less?

Been looking at building another one myself, the first was only good for my air rifle.

Digital add on, the unit by itself is in your price range, but requires an IR torch & day scope adapter as well:

NT200 digital add on. Higher price than you want to pay, but better performance than the above and DSA included. Still needs a torch:

NT300. Suitable for the .243, has taken a fox at a measured 296 yards.

Otherwise you will be looking for a Cobra Merlin/Dipol 125 Gen 1 with IR laser and DSA or a Pulsar Challenger Gen 1 with IR laser and DSA.

For the same sort of money you could get a Photon MK2, ATN X-Sight, Sniper Cam, or one of the Nite Sites.
So not really any cheaper making your own?

Oh, its cheaper. But building an inline unit is a pain in the rear, which appears to be what OP wants.

Building a screened unit? 250 quid will give you an E700 based unit, complete with screen, torch, batteries, mounts, charger, DSA. A lot cheaper than a buying an NS200 and better range and resolution.
