I bought a Ruger 10/22 sporter TALO (model# 31167)

It comes with this.
  • Combination scope base adapter for both Weaver-style and .22 tip-off scope mounts included.

I also bought a Bushnell RIMFIRE 3-9X40 RIFLESCOPE ILLUMINATED (model# BU-RR3940BS13)

I am confused about what type of rings to get??? This is just going to be for varmint and plinking.
 
The stuff in question is referring to how the mount (ie rings) attach to the rifle itself.

Google 22 tip off and then Google weaver style and you will see the difference.

Whatever ring size will be the diameter of the tube, but how it attaches to the gun depends on what direction you want to go.
 
Shouldn’t the tip off be just that skinny ass factory “rail” on the top. Something like an 11mm or some shit? I’d just out the weaver base on and open it up to more options of rings. Iffin I’m not retarded in my thoughts of this. Someone will be along shortly to confirm of deny my mental state.

Get a Pic rail and rings and call it a day. I put EGW rail on mine, zero at 50 and plink steel plates past 200 no problem.

That is a fantastic rifle, and as already stated you may want to upgrade glass in the future with a 30mm scope tube with a bit higher quality glass and more magnification. I really like Bushnell and SWFA (non rimfire) scopes on my rimfires.

This was my thought for the future. Thanks for the advice.
 
I went ahead and ordered a cheap pic rail and ring set. I am sure down the line I will upgrade the optic package. But for now it will serve its purpose. Let 9yr old get some trigger time and plink.

Then I can get some wabbits and tree rats!!!
