SWFA mil-quad ....No Doubt !! You can track and hit reliably , or hold over with ease . Even though its very thin , its surprising how easy it can be picked up in low light .

The Hawk TMX is pretty spiffy. At $700 it's more than twice what I am willing to pay. Is there a more budget friendly scope that is quality and has a similar reticle?

I don't know of one ideal reticle for all situations. It is interesting that many people decide to buy a scope based upon various superficial features, and for airgunners a largely irrelevant issue such a glass quality (because even basic budget scopes invariably exceed the actual needs of 99% of them), when a good reticle for the task/person and the ability to maintain zero is important.
For quick moving targets with confused background, usually at shorter ranges with little holdover, I prefer a simple point of aim given by the "German No 1". Sometimes available in budget scopes. I love this for squirrels darting through trees.
German #1 Reticle
For longer range and precise targeting and shooting, I actually prefer the Falcon B20 over any Schmidt & Bender reticle; which I find are commonly irrelevant to even use on a centrefire rifle.

I like the MTC SCB reticle, it was made for small calibers. Very easy to correct shots with it, I have two scopes Viper and Mamba Lite, love them.
