Thread: Good scope for a 10/22.

Yes, good points @MB

I enjoy hunting a wide range of game but in this region the reality is 90% of the lead that goes downrange is heading for rabbits. Many years ago I decided that having a cheap, fixed 4x scope on my 10/22 was a dumb idea because it was the rifle I used most frequently. I was tempted to put some Euro glass on it but that wasn't really practical so I went for the Droptine. As MB states, its not necesaary to go for a rimfire-specific scope and I'd never used one before, but it does work quite well and the drop charts online are spot on for the CCI subs I use in confined areas.

If its going to be the rifle you use the most, put a decent scope on it. Just because "its only a 22LR" doesn't mean go cheap. Life is short, spend up large and enjoy it.

Edit: That scope above sounds like a good bang for your buck option.
