Scope for my 10/22VLEH
1 Attachment(s)
I have a the "new" 10/22VLEH tactical target model on backorder and have been going back and forth on what glass to bolt on to it. I have heard good things about the Mueller 4.5x16x40 as well as the Vortex Crossfire series.
This is the place to ask the resident experts, and since I haven't had a .22 with these specs for accuracy before I was hoping for recommendations on a scope under $200. Will be used mostly for gophers/popcans/dirt clumps under 200yds. Any advice would be appreciated (reticle rec's as well!) . MERRY CHRISTMAS! |
I have a Zeiss Conquest 4.5-14x44 on my Volquartsen, but most people would not spend that kind of money on a 22lr. I am curious as to what you are expecting for accuracy with this rifle? What ammunition do you intend to use?

I just put a Simmons ProTarget 6X18 on my 10/22. Hav eonly used it onve but it seems to do the job just fine. It's got BDC and cost right around $180

Vortex Diamondback 4-12x40 is just a hair above that budget at $220.00 but is a lot more scope than a crossfire.

I haven't considered ammo yet but I'm sure the majority of rnds through this ruger will be cheap bricks for plinking around. I am hoping to put respectable groups together at 100yds but won't go as far as to say how close. haha
I took a look at the diamondback online and noticed it lacks the AO. I spent a little more on this gun over the stock version for the barrel, trigger (ok, looks..) and hoping to spend a couple afternoons setting targets at 200 and seeing what I/it can do. For that reason I thought the AO may be nice? |

When you get it try CCI blazer in it. I have a 10/22 target and it does very well with this round for plinking even at 100 yards. Plus I get it for 20$ a brick!

Where did you order your 10/22 VLEH from? Have you been given a date for delivery?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...338/th_002.jpg I purchased mine last spring and put the Nikon 3-9 .22 LR scope on it with the BDC reticle in it. The gun is a true tack driver, so smooth and a blast to shoot. I purchased about 8 different boxes of ammo to find which one shot the best group. Keep in mind I bought this gun for shooting gophers and such so I did not buy any of the so called target ammo. The one that shot the nicest group was the CCI Segmented Hollow Points at 1640 fps. The bullet breaks into 3 pce's on impact and does amazing damaged. The picture with the dime is the lead from 10 shots fired one after the other into the same hole fused together and pulled from a tree at about 40 yards. |
