Hi. I use a Nikon Monarch on my CZ .22lr Varmint and a Simmons WTC 3.5-10x40 on my CZ Delux .22 magnum but when I can find another fixed power scope I will be fitting that to the magnum. The Simmons is a cravking scope but I prefer fixed power. DD Quote Link to post
Cedric 132 Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 I find my 3-12x50 (Hawke Endurance IR) very good on my hmr. My eyes are not so good these days and the exra magnification ensures feasable head shots on rabbits at 100 yards. Around the £300 mark though. Quote Link to post
ferreting lad 2 Posted April 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Cheers guys. But I'm thinking of splashing out on the scopes that I mentioned but just want to see if anyone is using them Quote Link to post
David Dey 2 Posted April 5, 2014 Report Share Posted April 5, 2014 I use a Nikon Monarch on my CZ .22lr Varmint Hi. I forgot to mention the Nikon Monarch is a 6x42, not the same as a Swarovski or S& B but a great scope for the money. I find the fixed power scopes a a lot better for me. DD Quote Link to post
hutchey 147 Posted April 5, 2014 Report Share Posted April 5, 2014 Bit of a waste on a 22 I'd have thought though! 1 Quote Link to post

Be a 2nd hand 6x42 I'd stick on it so a couple hundred quid but good stuff 200 quid?. Just get a Mamba Lite by MTC. That's plenty good enough for a .22, and you'll have some change!.

Tornado1979 145 Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 I've just put a nikon pro staff 3-9x40 on the .22, can't go wrong for £150 new. Quote Link to post
