    Scopes similar to Bushnell Rimfire

    About 3 years ago I picked up a bushnell rimfire optics scope, and I still run it on my CZ455
    Was recently thinking of putting another one on my 10/22 only to discover they have been disconnected.
    Everything about that scope fit the bill for what I wanted in a rimfire scope, okay quality glass, Duplex reticle, repeatable exposed target turrets (came with interchangeable BDC turrets also for .22LR and .17HMR) Adjustable parallax, 3-12 zoom, 40mm objective, 1inch tube, good build quality, and all at a very reasonable price I think it was about $350 new.

    What basic to mid range scopes are out there with most of these features now, any good recommendations?

    Nikko Stirling precision may fit the bill. They have a lifetime warranty now too I believe.

    Looks like a great recommendation, I'd not heard of that particular scope previously. Cheers!

    Nikko used to do one called an Airking which I used on my rimfires. That worked really well and were priced around the $200 mark. Actually designed to handle the vibrations from air rifles so will handle even big centrefire recoil well. (Airguns with springs are some of the hardest things on scopes...the vibrations are worse than any recoil)

    Gun City have this. Or should I say it's listed on their site.... https://www.guncity.com/bushnell-rim...multi-x-319647

    I use this; it's great. The parallax can be adjusted on the objective lens. https://www.outdoorsupplies.co.nz/Ni...ax_3-9x40.html

    This looks a closer match.
