Saw these at a show really low priced. Thought of getting
one to put on 22 rimfire for shooting steel between 25 and 100 yards. Anybody tried one? tks. |

Remember you get what you pay for and dont expect too much performance out of these. But for a .22 cal on these ranges and if light is not a big issue you wont go wrong with this scope, especially if you get em cheap.

Do you need 24X for a 100-yard shot?
I have not tried one, but as a general rule, .22LRs don't need 24X scopes. My .22 wears a 4X and it has served me very well. Consider something with lower power and better glass. |

Picked it up for $65.00 and did not expect Zeiss quality. It's not a bad scope and up to 16X is good and clear. As pointed out, a 24x on a 22 is overkill, so I'll not use it up that high. With low rings on my TC 22, I had to take off the rear sight but it does clear by about 1/16". The rifle would shoot 1&1/4" 5 shot groups with Aquillia (?) standard velocity ammo at 100 and a 4X scope so I hope a few more "Xs" will shrink that a bit. I really like the TC 22 and think "Rugermania" has sort of put it in the background. Pictures below. tks. for you advice.

It should be servicable.
Have fun with it. |
