Ruger 10 22

[Cohokiller]

I just pickd up a ruger 10 22. I want to put a scope on it. Which is a good scope for the money? The gun will be used mostly at the range. Thanks

What kind of distance are you planning on shooting? What is your budget?

 

[U.S. Patriot]

Bushnell Banner

 

[Cohokiller]

Distance is about 100 yards . I dont want to spend over 100 bucks

Mueller APV 4.5-14x40AO+Sunshade & FREE SHIPPING MAPV451440

Little higher than your budget but it's a great scope for the $ IMO

For under $100 look I would suggest a Simmons 22 mag. I put one on both my sons 10/22s and they have been good scopes.

I have had decent luck with the inexpensive Weavers

I have been looking for a scope for my Ruger 10 22 also. Thanks for all the info

I just bought one of the Simmons mag 3x9-32 scopes at miejer for $30. I think it's great, very clear and sharp. I don't think you're going to beat the "bang for your buck" on that one.

Don't like the ProStaff? I have one and it has served me well. As far as a good scope for 100 yard 10/22 shooting, I agree with a poster from earlier and go with the Bushnell Banner 3-9x40. Normally I just like a fixed 4x on my 10/22 scope, but then again I don't shoot it at one hundred either.

On another note, anyone got an idea for a average price on a 2nd hand 10/22 would go for? I'm trying to pick one for a quick plinking one.

 

[Mat250]

I've been pricing for a few months now and the 2nd hand ones don't seem to go for much less than new ones. If you find one for less than $175 they usually have some rust or are rough around the edges. You can get lucky though, just check the classifieds here and stop by every shop you drive by to see what they have.

I put a Bushnell on mine in 3-9 power and it works great-got at Gander Mountain

Gander has the 22 mag scope on sale for $49 with a 20 mail in rebate.

Depends upon area you live in and what model of 10/22 you are looking at. Generally, you will not find too many used 10/22's for sale. People tend to keep them.

The Ruger stock sights are abysmal, IMHO. I've seen and heard good things about tech-sights. That and good instruction will have you hitting what you want. Might look into the Appleseed project for that-we do a full weekend of shooting and history and heritage instruction and will teach you the tools you need. More info in the Appleseed advertiser forum here on INGO or at Project Appleseed Home. Click the oval in my signature to find the schedule so you can sign up for one when you're ready.

Blessings,
Bill

Centerpoint Scopes are a good scope for the price.
