Range or field........
Nice .22 field scope is the Weaver 1-3x20 about 9" long if IRC...but about $160.
Under $80... would be tough to get "best" maybe an "OK"........

Not too bad. I wish they made a cantilever or 1-piece mount for it though..

Go to WalMart and check out their Center Point scopes. They have a small version made for .22lr for about $59, give or take $10.
Not expensive and guaranteed forever. My neighbor sent his back to the company for some work and it came back to him w/in a few days fixed at no cost, shipping included.

That's the other one I was looking at.
How is this one from bsa? Rifle Scopes | Tactical Weapon Scope TW4x30 | BSA Optics
You can get inexpensive scopes that are good. Given that **** scopes are $50, anything in the 100-300 price range is inexpensive. There are PLENTY of quality scopes in that range. In the $80 range the OP is asking for, and compact, not so much...
PSA has a good scope for ~120 (1-4x). But it's not compact.. And it needs a mount. Generally, a good mount will cost ~75-100, if not more....
I'll give another vote for the Center Point. I have a 4-16X40 on my browning 30-06 and the darn thing has proven to be indestructible, holds zero extremely well and tracks very true. for low light it's not the best but what do you want for a $60 scope? They also make .22 specific scopes.

Take a look at the Simmons line. They make several .22 scopes that are .22 specific in that they have windage and elevation dials pre-marked for rimfire velocities. I have one of their .22 "MAG" scopes on a rifle, and it is quite clear, with accurate adjustments. Is it a Leupold? - No. Is it $300? - No, not even close. Under $80. A set of cheap, tall Weaver type rings for your rifle can be had for under $20. Not sure about the scopes Length without measuring...

I opted for a very 'tactical looking' BSA scope, which was in their higher price range and i had problems with it. I wished i had spent a little more and got a better scope....eventually it broke and when i contacted the place i got it they said they didn't carry that model anymore and would have to give me a credit note....that i could put toward a better scope.
One of my shooting buddies told me that since BSA had contracted out to the Chinese....BSA began to stand for 'Better Stay Away'
It's your choice but that's my opinion.

Mueller?
Just got mine.
Looking forward to compare it to a tasco 6-24 and 10-40.
Wonder how clear it is compared to a sightron s3

The performance will be fine. But any bullet drop compensation (bdc) or similar will be off...

I have the Bug Buster on a spring piston air rifle, it is tough enough for the reverse recoil of a springer a .22lr should be no problem. I found it to be a very decent scope for the money.

BSA Sweet 22 2-7x32 or 3-9x40. Have bullet drop compensating elevation turrets for .22LR. I used one to win a freestanding metallic silhouette club title once.
