.22LR rifle scope suggestions??

[brentt2010]

So i have recently got a remington model 597 and want to put a scope our a red dot on it now ive looked into a red dot from BSA. Does anyone have suggestions?

There are lots of good 22 scopes, but it depends greatly on your budget.

The Vortex Crossfire 2-7x rimfire is a pretty popular choice for about $120. I have also had good luck with Nikon ProStaff shotgun scopes @ $130, & I picked up a Nikon 3-9x ProStaff rimfire scope not to long ago that is a pretty nice option for <$150.

Going closer to $200 and for more magnification, the CrossFire II 4-12x and 6-18x work well and have adjustable objectives that dial down nicely for rimfire distances.

Of cource, if your budget is higher, there are plenty more great options to consider.

Talk to Alan at A&A Optics, he's a knowledgeable guy and a INGO site supporter and advertiser.

Vortex Optics - Crossfire II 2-7x32 Rimfire V-Plex Rimfire

If you do more shooting at 100 yds go with the centerfire version for 10 extra bucks

+1 to the Vortex Crossfire recommended by Alan. I have this on my 10/22 and it is a squirrel killing machine.

+1 to A&A Optics. PM 42769vette (Alan). He is great to deal with.

+1000 to all that. I have a crossfire II 2-7 and couldn't be happier with it on my 597. The BDR is right on and the scope is crystal clear and bright. I have been quite impressed with the accuracy a $160 rifle can put out, hope you enjoy yours as much as I have mine.

Can't speak for the Crossfire in particular as I've never shot it, but I can't imagine anything much better than this....

PROSTAFF 3-9x40 Rimfire Matte BDC 150 from Nikon

After looking through a ton of optics, I settled on this one for my 10/22 Takedown and I'm glad I did! It has a BDC reticle that's calibrated for the .22lr and it works! And for reference, it's priced about the same as the Crossfire being discussed. Hope this helps!
