25x or 32x rimfire scope?

I have a great shooting .22 Anschuz which currently has a 12x Weaver scope. I want to get a scope with more magnificaion in order to take shots out to 100-200 yards. Will a 25x scope with a 1” tube get it done or do I need to step up to a 32x with a 30mm tube?

Thanks for your time.
To get to 200 yds it takes 24 moa in scope adjustment. check total moa of adjust with a 1" tube. I have a Vortex 6 X 24 HST and 2 Sightron SIII 8 X 32 on my rimfires. I would go with a 30mm tube, and you can turn the power down, but you can't turn it up, if you don't have it.

That's an excellent point. That 24 moa is from your 50 yd zero so you probably have already used some of your scopes elevation adjustment. You may want to add some incline to whatever mounting system you end up using.
