CZ 455 varmint scope options

I like the Vortex better than Nikon. You can go cheaper with a 2x7 Crossfire if you'd like.

How far are you planning on shooting? Good optics are worth the investment.

My 455 American wears a Nikon rimfire, my 452 Varmint has a Leupold VX-II 3-9x33 Rimfire CFR. The Nikon is very good, the Leupold is smaller, lighter, and clearer, plus has AO - and cost twice as much. I also have a couple VX-I 2-7x28 scopes on 10/22s. Leupold has dropped both models, jury is still out on the replacements.
I've been eyeing the Weaver Classic Rimfire 3-9x32. To my eye, the 3-9x40 scopes look a bit too large on the CZ, and bolt clearance may require tall rings with one. YMMV.

I bedded the barrel, installed a silencer, a 20 MOA base and a Leopold 6x18-40 AR mod 1 scope with a Mil dot it works very well.

I have it sighted in at 185 yards I can shoot from 50 to 280 yards with out adjusting it by using the mil dots.

Shooting Federal match the top post is good for 50 yards
top dot is 85 yards
3rd dot 115

2nd dot 135

first dot 160

then zero at 185

going down

first dot is 205
2nd dot 225

3rd dot 245

4th dot 265
top of bottom post is 280 yards

By adjusting it I can put the cross hairs on target at 400 yards.

This is a great rifle.

Any other mods to the gun other then bedding the barrel? Never would of thought even tapping steel out to that far with a 22. May go a little bigger on optics and go from there.

I have Mueller 8-32x44 TD scopes on two of my CZ's and so far, really pleased.

I got the Nikon, great piece.

Gonna stop by sheels in Reno in the AM and see what all they have. If I can’t find anything there I will stop by a Sportsman’s warehouse. They carry a lot of vortex optics.

Went with a vortex crossfire ii 6-18x44AO. Now just need to get rings and a good bipod and a case.

BLKS or Zee sigs for rings. I have a few bipods but am very happy with my site n clean.

Any suggestions on the ring height?
