Buy recommendations picking an LPVO

Planning to pick up a LPVO eventually for the makasi when it finally gets here.
Right now looking at vortex, was thinking the vortex venom 1-6 (470$) but just saw a sale for the vortex strike eagle for 600$. Wondering if the extra 130$ makes a difference and if these are decent optics

I have a 1-8 strike eagle that I used quite a bit... if I had to buy another one I would go with primary arms. The strike eagle wasnt the worst optic I've ever used but really, it was kinda to be desired. Could never get the focus right, the dot reticle is pretty big compared to an ACSS reticle, and a 1/2 moa click is really annoying when trying to zero at 200 meters
