    Buzz - the idea of a dedicated Rimfire scope is a bit like someone trying to sell you a Toyota branded battery
    There is an element of manufacturers trying to segment the market and leverage that into more sales in some way

    Your best bet is to have a try on your mates" 22s and see what you think

    A 22 doesn't have a long range so you could do well to look at a smaller magnification range, say a 1-6 or thereabouts

    As noted earlier in the thread, a really high magnification may be great for counting the hairs on a rabbit's bumhole but finding that bunny quickly in the field can be like scrubbing down the Taj Mahal with a toothbrush if you are stuck up on 16x power or some such
