I also have a few of the NcSTAR QR mounts and so far I like them. They seem to hold POA when taken off and back on.
$118.94 will get you into this one which is the unit on hand here. Love this scope. No batteries or IR. FFP is sweet. Worth every penny. I've seen a similar model out there that does have an IR for a bit more money. These scopes all come out of the same plants with components for production runs specified by each maker (i.e. BSA, Falcon Menace, Famous Maker, FM Optics, Nikon, Bushnell, Osprey and even some larger Euro makers). While this is WAY more scope than necessary for a 22LR, it is in the price range of many far lesser scopes.

FFP is cool - many folks haven't seen it. The mil-dots at 4x are nearly impossible to see and they are the size of baseballs at 14x. Easy to apply dope to the scope and use holdover techniques. Wow... That really rolls off the tongue...
