[QUOTE="Rod Snell, post: 1765038, member: 796"] All the good companies make scopes specifically set up for .22LR ranges. Nikon even makes one with a .22 LR calibrated Bullet Drop Compensator. Yet many people apparently never heard of parallax settings, and buy scopes set up for long-range shooting with a centerfire rifle. Such scopes set for 100+ yd parallax cause misses at the typical .22LR ranges (under 50yds) because the crosshairs move on the target when you move your head. Unless you plan to do your .22LR shooting mostly beyond 100 yds, I'd get a quality scope specifically marked for .22LR shooting, which typically has the parallax set for 50yds. [/QUOTE]
