Rifle Scopes Under $575 scope for NRL22

[K2e2vin]

I currently have an Athlon Midas TAC 5-25 scope on my CZ 457 but that pushes me into Open Class. Lack of chassis options(left handed) makes me reluctant on committing to Open and just keeping the rifle Base. I have an EP5 on another rifle that I can throw on there and keep me in Base, but it's pretty dang heavy. Even with the Midas on there, it already feels top heavy. I was also considering the Bushnell Match Pro. Anyone know how these two compare? Any other scopes I should be looking at?

Do you have a full-length ARCA rail on the forend? The feeling of top-heavy can often be caused by insufficient stability of the forend on a bag, and the wide flat of a rail helps with that a lot.

Other than that, the EP5 is the scope you’re looking for.

In that price range, I’d say get another EP5. You’re already familiar with the reticle and the scope itself. Keep it simple.

I know it’s a bit of a pig, but you’re not likely to find many high-adjustment 34mm FFP scopes that weigh much less than the EP5, that is actually built tough enough to handle competition abuse, track true (with a guarantee), and have good turrets, in the sub-$600 price range.

I like my Midas TAC more than the EP5, hence why I'm trying to see if anyone has tried the Match Pro. Seems very popular with the 22lr crowd.

I don't have an ARCA rail but may consider it. It feels top heavy with the Midas TAC, which is about 10oz lighter than the EP5.
