I had an extra NF 3.5X15 in the safe so I put it on. Worked great till it broke.. It's in for repair right now. Damn 22lr recoil!!!
What scope are you running on you 22?

- Start date
Not sure.. Parallax broke... No big deal... Even nice things break... Life time warrantee..
Your rifle looks badass slug-O, is it the 452? who did the paint job?

SS 10x42 MRAD on my 10/22. Was able to break some clay pidgeons at 300 yards the other day, no problem - 11.5 mils of elevation and 2 mils of wind at 4-5 MPH - just like 1000 yard with a 308.
My "go to" rimfire scope has been the Vortex Viper 6.5-20x44 V-Plex Wide. Good travel on the turrets. Just the right amount of magnification and thin enough reticule. Unfortunately, that model was a CameralndNY distributor exclusive for a steal of a price. However they do have open box DEMO units of the BDC and Mil Dot reticules available:
Vortex - Camera Land NY
or if you want 50mm Objective lense
Vortex - Camera Land NY
If money is no object also look at the SFP 6-24x50 PST's. DEMO units also available and at steal for $630!

Now there's something you don't see everyday! I have a few vintage scopes similar to that, but not quite a programmer. I also have a Leupold Vari X 3 on my MPR, a 10x SWFA on my custom .22, a Nikon on my Volquartsen. All work just fine, especially on .22 rimfire rifles.
Leupold Mark AR 4-12x40
Good so far.
IMO I haven't found any reason for shooting 22rf beyond 100 yards. Anything that won't group better than 0.60 MoA beyond 100y isn't anything I'm interested in shooting beyond 100y. And I haven't found a 22rf that will shoot much better than 1" @100y
SO why dump tons of $$$ into a 22rf scope?

I'm using a Weaver 3-9x 32mm. Its cost effective, lightweight and is capable of focus inside of 10meters. Paired with with a lightweight fluted aluminum shroud bull barrel and volquartsen trigger, makes a handy sub 4lb game getter. Shoots inside an inch @ 50meters. Everything a 10/22 should be.
Bushnell Tactical 3-12 and 6-24 are on most of my rimfires. They are excellent with the G2 reticle. FFP, compact size, light weight, mil/mil/ffp, parallax down to 10yds on the 3-12 and 25yds on the 6-24. No zero stop, and clicks aren't quite as nice as a vortex, but I can forgive that for correct parallax on my rimfire's and slightly better glass.
I have been threw many: Zeiss Divari 6-24 (didn't have enough elevation, not FFP), PMII 5-25 (too big and heavy), NXS (parallax would not correct in some conditions at 50yds, not FFP), Vortex Razor 5-20 (too big, small eyebox), Hensoldt 4-16 mil dot (great scope however I thought I needed a reticle that allowed for better hold overs and a more precise aiming point, heavy).
I "think" I have settled on a HDMR Tremor2: it is a great reticle for precise hold overs, good glass, good eye box, good price point, locking turrets (5 mil non ZS), very precise tracking, so far the parallax has been able to correct properly. The Tremor2 has the open center with the dot for very precise aiming if I want to shoot small groups at 50yds, but the G2 is a very fine reticle and I am trying that one too...

Swfa ss 16 x 42 mrad
For the price, can't beat the SWFA Super Snipers....changed over from MILDOT to MRAD for the increased verticle hold overs....

Using a Sightron SIII 6-24X50 MOA on a Cooper 57M. With a set of older eyes every little bit helps.

This is the best prone 200 yard group I have shot with it. I shot it at the Missouri River Shooter's Assoc. range in Great Falls MT. I was not shooting for score, just holding dead center and not compensating for the wind. I was trying a new batch of Lapua ammo and wanted to see how it would group at 200 yards.
I'm running S&B 3-20x50 in a AI 28 moa mount on my Anschutz 1827F.
I had a lucky shot today!!! 354Y cold bore hit on a 10" round steel plate in 10+ mph winds. 16.1 mils dialed on and held off 2.5 mils. Of course we won't talk about the other 9 shots that danced around the steel, haha.

Ok Steve you have been told no more picture, of that damm sexy rig. LOL
looks great. way to go on stretching her legs out
The reticle is better in the BSA Tactical 4-14 offered on midway. Otherwise, I'd agree with you.

I have had an NXS 3.5-15X50 on mine for years. A great scope and I have never had issues with it.
Simmons WTC 6.5-20x50 w/ AO
99% of the time I have it on 20x, shot a standing-only match with it (silly-wets at 50 yards) on 6.5 once, second time I shot that match I used my Mossy 44 w/ peeps
Knowing what I know now, I would've gotten a fixed power higher magnification scope. If you gave me the $ today to replace it I'd get a Weaver T-24 or -36.

What I'm running on my FV-SR. BV in 17hm2, and J. Bunting bullpup have leftover Centerpoint 4-16s, new Charger might get a Millet LRS-1 mounted to it just for laughs, but will probably go BSA MIL/MIL or Primary Arms MIL/MIL since I no longer live in TX.
Here is one. 16X Unertl.

Sorry I missed your post. Yes it is a 452 and I had the stock locally dipped and everything coated also. Thanks, slug-o
