I was planning on learning to use Mil-Dot..I do not have any experience with any reticle presently..what would everyone suggest.? Is Mil-Dot the way to go.? I am not necessarily looking for what is easiest to learn or use. I want something that allows accurate hold off, elevation, etc. Something that is good for range determination, etc. I guess I just assume that Mil-Dot is the way to go since so many sniper/military sites mention it.
Suggestions welcome.

Mil-Dot's are fine for their intended purpose but un-needed and pretty much useless at the short ranges you mentioned.

at what range would you say they are needed? I know once you are zeroed at 100yds you would have no use for them in shooting at a 100yd range, but what about 3-500.?
What would be the reticle you'd recommend otherwise? something that allows for hold off for wind and motion..

check out counter sniper brand scopes these scopes are awesome, and one for close to medium range like you want is right in your price range.

Do you know what the total internal adjustment is on this scope.? I know it is a 1/4 MOA adjustment, but was wondering what the total possible adjustment is.
I can get it locally for about 190 and am thinking that I will get it soon.
