scopes for ruger 10/22 ?????

Just bought my first rugar 10/22 about two months ago and love to shoot it. It is a ton of fun. Hope to have quite the collection in the future. definitely my favorite gun to shoot

 

Hey man I had the BSA for awhile was really disappointed in it. Been putting Leupolds on since.

 

I know there's a few on here that build whistle pig guns as I did in Boise... even with a bull barrel, Volquartzen trigger, and competition stock the .22 LR is a short range round. I figure I'll put the crosshairs on my target at not much more than 100 yards. In that scenario, the Simmons scopes worked just fine.

 

I forget the other poster but I agree with the fixed 4x32 Nikon Prostaf. Its built for .22lr and short range (75yds and in) small game hunting with a corrected parallax for 50yds.

Not too much more $ than the BSA at about $100 shipped from Amazon or wally world and you will have no doubts in it's abilities.

 

I have had two of the Simmons 3-9's neither would hold zero through the season. Dumped them and bought a basic bushnell at walmart and have not looked back since.

 

I bought two Swift scopes for my precision 22lr's.
ONe is an airgun scope and parralax is way in on it.
Swift Premier scopes are very good.

 

I got my scope at walmart for like 50 bucks. 3-9X50. I like having the bigger field of view. I think its a simmons. You dont need to spend a lot of money on a .22 scope...

 

wait what....should i know something i dont here
calling doc now.....

 

oh and i bought n installed the scope last night
i went with the sweet .22



i got it for $39.99 couldnt pass it up.......
its adjustable for the grain loads you use.....
and once sighted in can be adjusted quickly for 50 yards, 75,100 ect

next stop the range......
ill keep youz guyz posted
thanks for all the help

my second choise was going to be the barska 4 x 32 w/ illuminated reticle
also $ 40
all at dicks sporting goods

 

The objective lens size as in the "50" on your scope has nothing what so ever to do with the field of view, it simply gathers more light. And a quality scope with a smaller objective lens, say a "40" will gather more than a larger one of lesser quality, it's all about the glass.

 

the same scope in the 40mm has a narrower sight picture...

I know quality glass makes up for light gathering, thats why on my hunting rifle I have a 3-9x50 leupold

But for my .22 I didnt feel the need or have the money for a high dollar scope. I had a busted up scope that I got for free on it for like 3 years...the crosshairs rotated and actually made an "X" instead of "+". it was still sighted in, just with "X" hairs...haha

 

x hairs now there is an idea

 

lol when other people would shoot it they looked through it and then would look at me all confused...

It was a pretty good conversation peice for a while.

 

other.

Nikon is the best bang for your buck out there. i would've recommended a 3-9. i have a red-dot on my 10/22T which is awesome out to about 50 yds. i find myself wishing for more "zoom" sometimes but you can't beat it for quick aquisition and rapid fire. i have a nikon 2-7on my slug gun and couldn't be more pleased. last year i bought a Sightron 3-9x40 for my savage .22 WMR and have been really impressed with it. clarity is as good or better than the Nikon. Sightron uses Japanese glass, which is one of the main reasons i started looking into them. they are reasonably priced also. (slightly higher than an equivalent Nikons) the red dot i have on the 10/22 is a Sightron model also...great quality.

10/22T with Hammerforged barrel, bone stock with exception an Accuracy Systems recoil buffer pin.


CCI velocitors @ 50yds...grouping would be better if i had some magnification

 

im loving the stock ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

I got a ruger 10/22 for my 12th birthday. At the time i bought a cheaper bushnell scope with some birthday money i had. Well, i'm 24 now and for how much i plink with the 22 it's a great scope and has always been accurate. I don't know the model but it was a cheaper busnell (probably around 40-50 bucks, i can't remember).

 

My dad had that same ruger, it was a tack driver when we had it.

haha that sounds pretty much exactly like my story, my grandad bought mine for me at 12 or 13 and im 24 now and still love shooting the thing.

 

same story here but it was a glenfield 25 and im 40 now

 

the same gun?!
I never plan on selling mine. well 3. over time I "worked" for 3 guns. He got me a rem 700 7mm-08, a rem 1100 12 ga., and the ruger .22

he passed away when I was 15, I dont think I could ever sell any of those guns.

 

i am a sucker for laminated stocks...my slug gun, savage .22 mag and mini 14 are also laminate...i've always like the looks.

shoots great...at least as good as i need.
