Looking for specific tactical scope recommendations for a Barrett M82-A1. All shooting to be within the 200-1000 yard range. Considering Super Sniper & Millett given their value/price.

SS10x42 and a SS16x42. Since the price is so good, get both. Out to 1000 is easily done with a 10x scope, but if you ever have a chance to go out farther you might appreciate the 16x. However if your limited to one get the 10x. Better eye relief, and wider FOV. |

With the 82 10x is all you'll ever need. Shot group for that rifle at 1K is something like 72 inches on a decent day with better than milsurp ammunition.
The SS 10x42 is a good choice, recoil won't kill it.

No I have been spared the grief and loss of funds. A better choice in that price range is IOR 6x42 fixed power tactical with MP8 reticle.

I concur, There are also some others The SuperSniper for instance, and it costs less, with good glass and nearly bullet proof.
