Out to 800 yards that is along way. The ones I would go with in your budget would be either a
Bushnell Elite 4200 8-32x40mm

or a
Burris Signature Select 8-32x44mm
http://www.swfa.com/pc-8142-360-burris-8-32x44-signature-select-rifle-scope.aspx
Both of these scopes are in your price range. But these are kind of low end for shooting like that. If I had the money for that distance I would be shooting a Night Force NXS Scope 30mm Tube 12-42x 56mm Side Focus or a Leupold Leupold 8.5-25x50 Mark 4 LR/T 30mm Riflescope. The Leupold I would send off and have the power boosted on it. Both of these scopes will set you back $1500+
You might also need a set of 20moa basses for shooting that far. these are basses that have 20 MOA built into them so have enough adjustment in the turrets.

Get a Leupold.
You can spend more money for a scope, but you can't get better quality.

I like BSA and Konus.... but if your going to spend $500.... go for a Leupold...... the VX II and VX III series are really nice and right in your price range.... go here....

Get the nicest one you can afford. You get what you pay for.
