Title: Scope Recommendations? (455 American, 22LR)
Post by: Hasaf on August 29, 2018, 05:58:31 AM
I just purchased a CZ 455 American .22LR. As such, I am looking for a scope.
Budget, 250-350 for scope and rings.
Purpose, informal target and plinking.
Magnification, low, I would like something that starts closer to 2x.
I prefer covered turrets, just one less thing to accidentally mess up.
Finish, and this is the one that makes it hard, I would prefer gloss, not matte. The reason is simply that I want it to match the rifle.

Frankly, I am window shopping for the scope right now. I have time as I will not be home, to pick the rifle up, until December. That being said, I am not finding what I want. Any suggestions?

Just to follow this up, I went with a Leupold Rimfire 4x28. I found a used one because I wanted a gloss finish, to match the gun. The new ones have matte finishes. Leupolds warranty program helped me to be willing to go used, and it saved me a couple of bucks.


A good part of what sold me was that this is one of the lightest, good quality, scopes that I could find.
