My 15-22 is a gun for fun or as a training understudy.......... currently have a red dot on mine....... but found a Weaver 1-3x20 scope (shotgun) is a great little scope for about $150..... I understand it is/was popular with the "3 Gun" shooters.
Keith, wait till 32icon sees the price point of your Vortex hehe
Don't worry, Vortex's 'budget' line are still better than all the $80 scopes put together.
Hahahahaha. Ghost, you are silly. Yes, I did gasp for air. LOL!

A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men![]()
I think you'll be very hard pressed to find another brand scope that has the quality the Nikon line gives at that price point. One HUGE aspect of a quality scope is the lens and as you already know Nikon has been making very high quality lenses for many years. I have not heard of nor read any negative reports about Nikon scopes. Also, Nikon offers a very good warranty on their scopes.I have a Nikon P-22 rimfire scope (2-7 X 32) on My M&P15-22. I believe they changed the name of it to P-Rimfire. It is specifically designed for 22 rimfire AR platforms. Have the BDC reticle and sighted in at 50 yards. Very nice scope - clear optics. The Nikon cantilever mounts are extra and are a little pricey.
It's funny you brought up the Nikon because I have been researching them lately. They seem to have a quality brand of scopes. My Nikon camera is still working to this day so that says a lot. I didn't know they were in the firearm market. Thanks!

Honestly, I'm sold on them. It's just a matter of which one I'm going to get and where I can buy it for the cheapest. Opticsplanet seems to have the Prostasff II that another gentleman on here told me about. I think they're sold out on Amazon. I'm going to keep looking. Thanks for the input.
I will be honest I didn't read all the post's but I did notice lots of good info.
I saw this scope on Amazon, but you're right. It didn't get the best reviews. I'm glad you share your information with me. I'll check it out. Thanks.

Hahaha. Right. Ah man. Never knew such a hobby could give me a headache. Lol
Now then icon i'm gonna throw a wrench in the works
Man ol man!! That looks great!!! So this is a co-witness setup you have here? Someone else told me I could consider such in case my sight fails or battery dies. Now I'm going to have to research this. I'm telling you...I've done the most research on damn sights it's ridiculous. Lol. And I'm still stuck. Lol.
PS i used to be in the photography game to the point where we ran a modeling studio even the Hasselbad cameras that cost 50k bucks a day to rent couldnt touch the clarity of Nikon glass.
Nikon is looking more and more like the winner.
Suggest you also purchase flip-up caps for your scope to protect the lenses while shooting, transport, & cleaning.![]()

With the EXPS3 having a QR mount (7mm),this gives a lower
1/3rd co-witness other Eotech's without the QR mount give a co-witness in the
centre of the window.Hurry up icon we need to see pics of
your 15-22the saying is it don't happen without pics

I agree. Thanks for sending the link. But if I have the scope, it almost defeats the purpose of the red dot, right? Why would I have both?
Its for heads up (rather than cheek weld) shooting at close range.
TBH unless you're in the military doing CBQ type operations it has next to no use given the massive distance from the bore axis. I use it all the time of courseLooks good though
