What is the best Night vision Monocular or Spotting scope for around 200 dollars. I am using it to scout before a hunting trip and want the best bang for the least buck. I am interested primarily in ATN. Also how does the AT-NA-450IR integrate into one of the ATN units to give a better view of what's really out there....I want the ability to at least see images at 100 to 200 yards away in complete darkness. ANY recommendations would be highly useful.

Seeing in complete darkness (overcast, no stars, no moon) at those distances is simply not realistic for a Generation 1 Night Vision product, which is what $200 will buy. On a moonlight night or clear night, you can get reasonable performance at 100 yards with a Gen 1 NV product, but 200 yards is a stretch.

Best buy in that price range is the Night Owl Explorer 3x Marine.
