An M-200/f4 might be a lens worth considering.  They're readily
available at fairly low prices.  Add a teleconverter for a little
extra length.  Probably not the best solution, but definitely more
affordable than a new zoom in that range.  The split image focusing
screen may make a tele hard to use.  Good luck, and post some of your
photos!
