What Scope For A 22Lr?

[ledders666 6]

Hello,

 

I have just got my FAC for a 17hmr and a 22lr, im getting a 22lr first, a cz 452. What scope would people recomend for it, my budget is £130, im looking at a hawke panorama 3-9x50, I have this on my airgun and it is good but before I buy it i wander if any one would suggest something else.

 

cheers.

That will do fine, mine has a 2.5-10 x42 Tasco on it, no need for anything fancy its a yard or so rifle.

I find I shoot my .22 on par 4/5 most of the time as I find I can get on target alot faster.

i always stick to the Simmons whitetail classic

bushnell legends were on offer for that money a little while ago. what ever you get check that the poi does not shift on a zoom scope.I found one in my collection that does!

I use a Simmons Aetec 2.5- 10 x 44, cant fault it.

MTC Mamba. It has the side focus that is very useful if you decide to go down the night vision route later.

Thats worth knowing, why is it that side focus is needed/better for night vision over one with no adjustment or having the adjustment on the end?

Unless you have long arms, side focus is always better. It can also help with rangefinding.

It just make life easier on the side. If you have the light on top of the scope you can end up blocking it when trying to focus a front mounted version.

Agree with that. I got the Mamba lite which is even cheaper than the Mamba. My Archer N/V loves it.

Nought wrong with the hawke scopes ive got them on all my rifles

[ledders666 6]

Went for this one in the end http://www.uttings.co.uk/Product/543/102785/hawke-sport-hd-4-12x50-ao-ir-rifle-scope/

as I like hawke scopes and this seems good value, also looking at the Hawke BRC program, does anyone use it looks very accurate, I will compare it to my shots, when my FAC comes through, got the scope waiting and my brothers CZ452 all waiting just need the damm certificate, very excited though

Just got hold of a Falcon Menace for mine so there might be a Phillipines Simmons Whitetail 3.5-10x50 up for sale soon
