Rimfire Scoped and Rings Recommedation.

I’m really liking my Arken EP-5 5x25. They are the little secret of the 22 rimfire world

Yeppers 4-16 /44 Japan glass made in Check Republic. Great scope

I'll second that scope pick,I have three of them. True tracking.

Check Ebay for older Weaver scopes. The older T series are very good scopes. The V9's are good and usually less than 100 bucks.

Arken SH-4J. Japanese glass, great eyebox(better than EP-5), zero stop, 34mm tube. I like it better than my EP-5. Best part is you can get it less than $400, probably can get it with rings for around $400.

If at all possible, save your kids from using something made in China. My latest rimfire, a CZ 457 .22 WMR, pairs nicely with a Vortex Viper PST 3-15x44 from the Philippines.

I got the rifle but, that scope is higher than the price of the CZ457. I've never had that high quality of a scope and wondered if it's worth it. Academy no longer has the scopes displayed. I miss that.

Recently picked up a Savage Mark II FV SR and now I am exploring scope and ring options. A lot of options out there. Use will mostly be punching paper and small silhouette targets. Looking for something reasonably priced. Some of the ones I have been looking at are listed below.

Bushnell Banner 2 4x12x40
Vortex Crossfire II Rimfire 2-7x32
Vortex Diamondback 4x12x40
Leopold VX-Freedom 3x9x40

Any feedback on the ones listed or other suggested options? Don’t want an overly complicated reticle because while I will be using it so will my 11 year daughter and 10 year old son.

Thanks,

David

You might look at the Leupold Ultralight 4x rimfire, it meets VX2 optical standards...I use the same in the now apparently discontinued 2.5x, bright and clear, better than eyes in low light. Very light and rugged scopes, and using light Weaver low rings, you'd likely not be adding much past 10oz to gun, total....with the 2.5x I came in under 9oz total, keeping a light rimfire still light and fun.
