Recommend me a scope for my 10/22 in the less than $100.00 range.. Can be .22 specific....just doing some 100 yard and in shooting..thanks gang

I have a cheap BSA scope on one of my 10/22's and it holds zero and helps me hit pennies at 100 yards. The optics are decent and it holds zero without any issues. The same scope did not hold zero on my .308 but its great for the 10/22.

Sweet 22 works for me

When I bought my Savage Mark II .22LR rifle, I got a model called the "GXP" from Dick's Sporting Goods, basically the "G" means Wooden Stock {Savage Arms has a ton of Letter Codes for their stuff} and the XP means like "Combo Package" ie including scope. It was a Bushnell 3-9x40 , there are a few models Bushnell makes under $100 .. now i have to say it was a great little scope for the price. I was shooting mostly indoors at 25 yds so to be honest I would have just kept that scope if a buddy didn't knock it over and break it a little... so I upgraded to a ProStaff.

 

But if you do a quick search on Optics Planet, Amazon, etc you will find a bunch of 3-9x40mm and similar Bushnell's that were very impressive for the price, I really thought it was nice and bet you would too (especially for less than $100 which you want or have to be at right?)

Simmons makes some really good .22lr scopes, I have a 3x9x30 on a Marlin Bolt action and it's pretty damn accurate.

I've heard some good stuff about Pentax scopes, and have seen some good prices on sportsman's guide. However, I've only had the chance to play with them a few times, and do not own any. I plan to get a Pentax or Nikon scope for my .22 rifles when funds allow. A used nikon may be within your budget - I believe that the rimfire Nikon scopes are closer to $150 new.

 

I've got a few Sweet 22s - a 4x32 and a 3-9x32, they are decent enough scopes - especially for .22s out to 100yds...

 

I also have an old Barska 3-9x50, and it is terrible in terms of optical quality. Holds zero and lets me hit 1" targets on occasion at 100 yards if I run decent ammo, but after using decent scopes, it's so hard to look through that Barska.

 

Make sure what you get is multicoated, some really cheap scopes have only a few coated optics (if any) inside. Highly multicoated optics can help increase light transmission, which may be important with smaller front elements on many .22 scopes.

 

And if you get a 50mm objective lens, be aware that [at least to me, it seems that] high dovetail scope rings are harder to come by - I got mine off BHphotovideo.com - They also have some good scopes there if you're looking...
