    I use a Nikon Buckmaster on my CZ455 and it works great. I also have a Prostaff on my Ruger 10/22 and it is also an excellent scope. Both are 6 - 18 power and 40 mm. In fact, I use various Nikon scopes on all my rifles now. They just plain work and the optics are really clear. For the money they are excellent scopes that hold up well.

    Sadly, almost all the reliable and lightweight rimfire scopes have been suspiciously discontinued. Everything available now is either unreliable, too heavy, or more expensive. The only reliable ultralight scope available now is a Leupold. And even they discontinued their ultralight VX1 Rimfire 2x7 power recently. The very best rimfire scope for the money was the Walmart Bushnell 4x32 Rimfire Scope for under $30. It was lightweight, unusually reliable, and had decent glass and a clear reticle. It was sold for a longtime but Bushnell abruptly canceled it in the last couple of years. Weaver also canceled their excellent made in Japan ultralight rimfire scopes. Now? Junky, heavy and unreliable Simmons, Barska, Hawke scopes etc or much more expensive scopes or ones that are too heavy for field use. Just 3-4 years ago though, there was an abundance of excellent rimfire scopes. It is a travesty that all of the way too heavy, too expensive or unreliable rimfire scopes Plinkster is reviewing here are all that are available now. If you can find the older scopes from before 3-4 tears ago grab em up and keep them because they are much better.

    Scope optics, so long as they are weather-tight (post 1950s) vary very little. Older scopes, generally, do not have variable magnification, but the optics are from the U.S. and Japan (or, Switzerland) and have both excellent color and also nice quality build for narrow rail applications, i.e. .22 or .17 hmr. There are high quality USED optics available. Because they are shipped from America to anyone with the money, they qualify as an American product, too.

    I bought a Hawke Sidewinder 30 scope. Took it out the box and dropped it, brand new scope,......and I dropped it. Hit the floor big time so it was no wonder the POI wandered from left to right as I zoomed in and out. I rang Hawke and told them straight up what I had done, they said to send it to them, which I did, and they returned it in full working order totally free of charge. Got 2 of them now, one on my CZ452 .22LR and one on my CZ452 17HMR. The other thing I like about the Sidewinder is the wheel that fits on the parallax. I do a lot of night vision shooting and this wheel makes it quick and easy to focus on a target. A 4-16x50 Sidewinder costs £380 which is about $490.

    I've bought El Cheapo brand 6x-40x scopes from Amazon, at about $100, and they work like a champ on most 22LRs. There's simply not enough recoil on a 22LR to screw up the cheap reticles and the earliest one I've bought has been solid for more than 4 years and counting. Granted, it's only used for rest-shooting (not walking around but from a fixed position) but my old eyes love all the Xs it can get :) . Never had any problems with any of them on any 22LR rifle. The drawbacks are when pushing out to 200+ yards, there's not generally enough adjustment to range from 50 yards out to 300 yards without an MOA riser. But from 25 yards to 150-200 yards, no problem. And if you're walking about hunting, it's big and heavy.

    Plinkster, One important feature that you failed to mention was the focus range for these scopes. Out here in the west, it is not uncommon to need a rimfire scope to focus at very close distance - we are talking 10 or 20 feet - all the way out to 150+ yards. Not all scopes can focus at those distances and give you a clear image. A second thing that you didn't discuss much was the reticle. Trying to do some precision target work with a fat reticle is frustrating. Trying to shoot a live or moving target with a thin target reticle is equally frustrating. You did show an image of the reticle's in the video, but little or not discussion on philosophy of use.

    I have 2 BSA Sweet 22 6x18x40 and they are excellent with very clear glass at all magnifications. I use them for target shooting with my Anschutz 1416D and M1913 rifles. They come in at about 150 dollars but very much worth it. I also have 3x9x32 Bushnell Banner that I bought in Germany back in 1986 and have kept it because the glass is so clear that puts many expensive scopes to shame.

    I too, have a BSA Sweet 22 on my CZ 455, and the brilliant glass makes the sight picture brighter/clearer than looking with the naked eye. My only beef is that the lens caps are "screw on" and can scratch the lens if not careful..But neither do they get caught by my hat brim, so there are both pros and cons I guess. As for the reticle, mine is a rather thick plain X until right at the target area and it goes very thin. There are no other marks or dots on it for any hold-over. Where the reticle gets thick is a pretty good hold over for about 200 yards, however.

    You must be one hell of a shot AND have access to a VERY competent Gunsmith/Armorer if you can do one hole groups at 100 with a 10/22.....Most of the 'hotshots' I've seen at the range throw down groups that look more like .410 patterns at 25 yds,,, well not QUITE that bad, but you get the point. Can't tell you how many 10/22 guys I've heard over the years 'bragging" about .7 to 1.0 groups at 50...."Accurate" is usually reserved (imhumble experience) to describe the targets brought in by the CZ and most often, the Anschutz shooters.

    @@seeratlasdtyria4584 Well, I was... I did the gunsmithing/tweaking myself. Lots of patient trial and error, meticulously documented to track what helped and what didn't. Also, a lot of the internals were replaced with Kidd Innovations parts, including his single-stage trigger. CCI Green Tag was good, but Eley Match really made it sing. Lapua and some of the other high end 22 ammo wouldn't perform as well in that barrel, the next barrel could do something completely different. Those single hole groups were best of the best, indoors, from prone with a bipod and a rear bag, when I was shooting every weekend and doing dry fire during the week. I think most people can attain that level of proficiency with a good instructor and six months of dedicated practice, but it takes work. If I stepped away from it for more than a couple weeks, it would take time to really dial in natural point of aim and breathing again. It's like most things, you can get to 90% with a little work, 95% with a good amount of work, but every 1% improvement beyond that takes A LOT of work, and must be maintained because it is a perishable skill. Since that post, I actually sold the 10/22 and picked up a CZ 455 which is my main 22 now. Stupidly accurate although being a bolt gun, it's sometimes harder to shoot really tight groups because it is easier to break natural point of aim between shots, and 22 is so finnicky. I tell myself one day I'll drop the coin on a Vudoo but it's unlikely, I don't compete anymore. For new shooters, kids, and even adults looking to improve, I highly recommend finding a local Project Appleseed. It's usually a two-day event, positional shooting with a 22 semi-automatic and irons. They teach marksmanship fundamentals and Revolutionary War history. I've seen people come in to the course having never shot a gun before, and by the end they can shoot 5-round 1" groups at 25m all day long.

    I bought the Hawke scope and got it for 230 dollars. I bought the 4x16x44mm scope and it came with the Hawke scope rings. Truly love the scope and it has very clear glass and i bought a sun shade for it too. I think it is better than the Nikons and i love Nikon, but if you spend just a little bet more for the Hawke scope you can't go wrong with it. I put my scope on my Ruger 10/22 and now i can hit the bull's-eye at 200 yards easily.

    I can’t speak for any of the scopes except for the Primary Arms , I purchased it installed it on my 10/22 and couldn’t hit anywhere near where I was aiming ( indoor range at 25 yards) . Returned it received a new one from P.A and second time to the range ( again indoors) it was off by 4”-5” for point of aim, returned it for a refund, just for the record I was using CCI mini mags each time. Now my search for a scope begins again, but in the mean time I’m using a Bushnell red dot which at 25 yards it performs fantastic haven’t had a chance to take it to an outdoor range because of winter ( every time wind, snow, rain) but weather is getting better.

    The Nikon does great on my Tactical Solutions Xring and also on my Ruger Precision Rimfire. I'll pick up the Hawke and take the Ruger out for some longer shots. BTW The Ruger is shooting 3/8" one hole 5 shot groups at 25 yards prone with the Vortex diamondback it has a larger field of view and more clarity than the nikon plus the crosshairs are finer. The RPR loves Noma USA Tac 22.

    I just ordered a Leupold VX-Freedom 2-7x33 for my AR-15, hoping to use it with both .223 and a .22 conversion kit. I really don't know what I'm doing yet. haha I'm a little worried that it won't work well at shorter ranges, like indoors at 25 yards. I just read that it's set to be parallax free at 150 yards! A local range goes up to 250 yards, so that's an option.

It has been used, abused, and throw in the back seat or bed of the truck more than the wife. It has been in *90 heat, *20 degree cold, 95% humidity, rain, freezing rain, dropped from a tree stand and dipped in a swamp. Always held zero and NEVER fogged up.

    Randy Lunn Apologies, it's an interchangeable term with parallax in most parts. Many have side-adjustment, but old habits die hard. Parallax adjustment if you don't know, refers to the focus knob where you choose a distance in yards or meters usually between ten and infinity, to ensure both the image (target) and the reticle are in focus at the same time. Without it, at close range you may have to choose what to focus your eye on, similar to the decision to be made when shooting fixed iron sights. The reticle may "float" in front of the image as you move your cheek weld, so even if it's clear, you could still be lining up with an out-of-position reticle, resulting in poor accuracy. Scopes without adjustment usually have a distance rating, so unless you're after a jack of all trades set up, you might not even notice it if you're typically shooting at the set range. [Edited to better answer the question; I rambled on about what it /does/, without actually realising my mistake.]
