I don't have an issue with variables on a rimfire. You don't have to use the feature, and fixed scopes are becoming less common. With that said, I prefer fixed when I can use/get them, and on a rimfire, 4 or 6x is good, but I probably prefer 6x a bit.For a .22lr hunting rifle, a nice fixed 4x or less is the way to go! I can't believe they even make variable .22 hunting scopes.
My fixed 10 on my hunting gun is a Bushnell Elite 3200, fantastic little inexpensive scope!Those 10x Bushy Tacs are a hellofa scope for $150 when they were available. I'd like to have another!
6X seems about ideal for a straight power rimfire and it is what I have on mine.Recently I found a 6X Japanese Tasco LER scope with i think .25' dot, and stuck it on my Ruger Charger Kidd barrel for prairie dogs. One of the best things I've done optics-wise in some time.
JM, agree! I have several Denver Redfield 2-7X scopes and all are great at tracking and holding POI. Much under-rated used scope and they can be fixed if necessary. I had one I had to send to IronSight to clean up the glass and re-seal it.Agreed. One of my all time favorites was a 2-7 power I ran on my .308. If I was hunting in the thick stuff it was turned down for maximum field of view. When I hit the field at the end of the day, it would get jacked up.
