There are ALOT of great .22 rifles specific rifle scopes out their. The Nikon is a great scope. One that I have been completely suprised by is the BSA sweet .22. I picked it up for $39 and man it is a really nice scope! I have it on my Marlin XT22 and it's very clear and I really like the BDC turrets for the different grains of bullets. I can turn it to 100 yds and rings steel all day long. It's worth a look for the cost. I got it from SWFA.com. Natchez also has a great price on it.
