The 22IR specific scope Cabelas sells would be a great choice. I have 6 of the 22lR and 4 of the 22M and love them.

What's your price range?
I'm running a Vortex PST2.5-10X44 on my 10/22. Plenty accurate out to 100 yards. Only down side is the 100 yard parallax setting. Bought it from the EE for around $400. |

For a variable power scope, dollar for dollar you can't beat a vortex. A Crossfire II will run you $140 and has a lifetime warranty, no questions asked.
Having said that, I prefer a fixed power scope for rimfires and many other rifles too. |

I find I shoot best with it on 4x for some reason. Next time I think I will get a fixed 4x. I have seen a lot of cheap scopes on a lot of hard use 22's. Coon hunting guns that are never cleaned, etc. The Simmons are pretty tough. |

If you're not going beyond 100 yards, a nice fixed 4x is good. I like the Leupold rimfire scopes. The 2-7 is nice too, but there's something to seeing the same magnification level every time you pick up the rifle.
On my go-to .22LR rifle, I use a Weaver 40/44 3-9x40 with Ballistic-X reticle. I would prefer a finer cross hair, but otherwise I really like that scope. The ballistic reticle really helps if you plan on shooting more than 100 yards. And actually it helps me a lot even past 50 yards. |

I recently bought the American Rimfire in .17hmr with 18" threaded bbl. These are really great rifles for the price. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
My other rimfires have cheapo dovetail mount Bushnell and Simmons scopes (<$50). They've done OK, but I wanted to put something better on the American. At the recommendation of my uncle I went with the Nikon Prostaff Rimfire 3-9x40 BDC. I have it sitting on Weaver Quad Lock High Rings with Weaver #12 bases. FYI I tried Weaver Quad Lock Medium Rings, but they didn't let the 40mm tube clear the rear sight, even with the sight folded down ( it was very very close to clearing though, super frustrating). This is my first Nikon and I'm very pleased with it. I have the high stock module installed on my American, and everything lines up perfect for me. I haven't had a chance to use the BDC feature of the retical yet, as most of my shooting is 50 yards or less. So far its been a tack driver at those distances. Good luck OP |

I'm mostly going to be target shooting between 50-100yds. I've never really shopped scopes for a rimfire, so the game is a bit new to me. Suggestions? 50-100 yards? Just get a cheap 3-9 power and call it a day. Cost no object, get a Shepherd P22LR.and use it for anything you want to. |
