I second Adam 32 a Burris Veracity with the first focal plane.

Yet another supporter of the SWFA 3-15×42. I currently have two of them. Have had others, and the 5-20×50HD. Great scopes for the money. Good glass, decent reticle, tracks fantastic, return to zero every time, and bulletproof. You can get zero stop shims for them too.
The Burris Veracity 4-20 was one of my first FFP scope and I got them when they first came out in 2014 (https://www.longrangehunting.com/th...riflescope-w-ballistic-e1-ffp-reticle.130833/). It's on my .270 AI and very pleased with it. Tracked tested to 1K yard thus far. Paid $629.99 for it back then.
I have the 5-20 on my .300 WSM and it is awesome tracking works as advertised and the optical clarity is awesome for these old eyes. Is ZS shim for the 5-20 available now, if so, please advise where I can get them. Thanks!

Thanks guys, yes I do want FFP, the Burris is not really what I want, to stay in the 42-44mm ob. size I would have to step down to the max of x10 power or go up to the 50mm ob. size which is not what I want. I have a very specific spec I want to try and keep to.
... and another! Below is video done by TiborasaurusRex, now a LRH member (Rex Tibor) ...

This is the only one I found that meets all your criteria, but I have no experience with this brand of scope so no recommendation is given from me.

I have been shooting PRS-style matches with the 4-16 Tango4 scope this summer. So far the turrets have been solid through dialing up and down for over 400 rounds fired. I've got the MOA milling reticle version and it's a really nice reticle, I think every precision scope I buy from now on will have a floating center dot! In my opinion it's actually useable at the low magnicifaction setting too; it turns into a basic duplex which is a plus.
Glass is for sure better than the Gen I PST scopes, haven't seen a Gen II so can't comment on that. Certainly plenty good enough for shots out to 600 meters/yards. The illumimation is quite good as well.
I've heard lots of good things about the PST Gen II scopes too, I think either one would fit your apllication well enough
