obviously this isnt a hard kicker so its not like you need to go hog wild and spend $1000, its not a big game rifle either so i would recommend something in the $100-$250 range  a lot will depend on what your needs are, how far are your targets do you shoot in low light etc.

swift makes a pretty nice scope that doesnt cost much and there customer service dept is awesome, you break it they give you a brand new one no ?'s asked and they arent real spendy.

Good recommendation pyro6999.  I think on my CZ 452 mach 2 I have an old Tasco 3x9 World Class that was on a Savage .17 HMR and I could hit quarters all day long at 100 yards.  Then, I put a BSA Sweet 17 on it and had trouble sighting it in and have wondered if there was a problem with the scope.  But, just as I was finishing at the range, it was close to sighted in and all the turrets were back to the zero settings.  Funny.  I will try it again.
