[judoguy]

hey folks I am about to purchase a savage mkII .22 rifle.


any scope recommendations?


I was looking at

http://www.opticsplanet.net/leapers-5th-gen-6x32-mini-size-a-o-range-estimating-mil-dot-sidewheel-red-green-illum.html

but honestly I never bought a scope before so I dont really know what to look for.


price range around 50-80$

I have that exact rifle and put on this scope: http://www.crosman.com/optics/ar22/CP392RG purchased at Walmart for $50. It works great!

The 4-16X50 MD by Centerpointe is a very good option - also available at Walmart for 69.95 IIRC

I considered that one but thought it was too heavy for my intended purpose. I also bought a set of high rise see through scope rings so the Williams firesights I installed can still be used.

The scope appears a little short. If using the Savage supplied separate mounts you want to make sure it will mount with the cross slots and such. I noticed the specs for the length and such was iffy. It is about 3.75 inches center to center on the factory mounting slots. EGW makes a one piece mount with more flexibility but it is about half the cost of the scope but a nice piece.
Mueller. Save up a little and get this. With good ammo the little rifle is worth it.
