    Simmons 22MAG 3-9x32 AO

    Just ordered this scope for my 10/22. After rebate, it'll only cost me $52. Others that have this scope-- what are you thoughts on it? I have read about the extra tall turret-- not sure if I'll be getting this "version" or not.

    I have that scope and for the price its a solid, clear scope. I was not disappointed in its performance. The biggest surprise was how clear this scope is. Colors do not wash out at the highest magnification and the scope holds zero very good, of course its mounted on a .22lr so not much recoil there.

      I have a few of them mounted on various 10/22s. I really like them and have had no problem with them. Clear, sharp focus. Don't think you can beat them for the money!

        I have about 6 versions of these budget Simmons. Optics are better or equal to some $150. scopes. I have them on both .22LR and .22 Mag rifles.

                I have the non-AO on my XT-22R. Form and function is great!

                  any pictures of simmons 22mag 3-9x32 and the AO model mounted on a 10/22? Would like to see a size comparison mounted --if any.

                  Also for other buyers in the market for the Simmons 22mag 3-9x32 A0 model, midwayusa has it on sale for $54.99 - $20 rebate = $34.99 + shipping

                    I also have the non-AO on my Sig and it is a great scope for the price. . . .

                      Rebate is $10 for any Simmons product from $49-99. $20 rebate for products over $99.

                        The AO model shouldn't really be any longer or shorter, or bigger or smaller, overall. I've got a 4x32 Bushnell on my 10/22 if you want a quick pic. A 4x32 is a bit shorter than a zoom scope (which you should be able to see in the now-attached pictures).

                          The objective bell on the AO model is a little bigger than the non-AO model. Not enough to make a big difference. I got the AO model and it came with rings, not the best but they work fine and the front of the scope easily clears the barrel on three of my .22 rifles. Good scope for the money, especially with the rebate.

                          Mounted on my CZ UltraLux I shot 3/8", 5 shot groups at 50 yds with Wolf Match Target ammo. Good nuff.

                            thanks for the clarifications on size and price.

                              I have had one for a month or so. It seems fine although the reticle is pretty coarse where it steps down to Duplex and the "fine" center portion looks like 2 L shaped wires. Is everybodies like this? L and reverse upside down L? about what I expect for $50....
