Rimfire Benchrest Scope Choices

[gkgeiger]

If funds and scope weight is not an object, new Sightron Model S6 10-60x56 with floating dot reticle is very nice.

Waiting on mine to arrive. I also have two SIII 10-50X60 Sightron.

Sightron ED and don't look back...

Yep. I've got a couple. The 0.1 moa adjustments are handy if you are shooting score. The crosshair was too fine for my old eyes, but the dot works good.

Arken for less money or for more $ a Sightron SIII COMPETITION 45X45 ED has great glass and functionality for benchrest. I like plenty of magnification, yes it magnifies movement, but it's hard to control something you cannot see.

the movement is what separates good days from not so good days, I cherish the days when I'm clear headed and relaxed nothing but the dot and trigger and bugholes, then ol shaky comes knocking, lots of magnification makes those good days easy just not enough of those days, I've found about 40 to 46x is my happy place but it don't matter on shaky days
