Looks like the new VX-Freedom will replace the old vx2s. Should be in store by Feb in murica

This is the pinnacle of rimfire scopes in my collection. I may have to pickup another one before they disappear!
Darnit, finally picked up a nice lightweight .22 (455 Stainless/Walnut) and before I even paid for the thing, for the first time in my life I knew exactly what optic was going to sit on top. Well, one of two, either the 2-7 or 3-9 vx-2 EFR.
Checked a few different websites, quickly realized they were discontinuing the vx-1 and vx-2 line. Bummer, guess I'll wait for announcements of the replacement during SHOTshow.
No replacement with an AO.
Any recommendations from fellow 'nutz as to what might fit the bill?
They come up on the EE from time to time.
When there is a new gun sitting in my safe and optics are required as there are no irons to use, then I'm an impatient man!
Prophet River came through for me, ordered the last VX-2 with AO I could find anywhere, a 4-12x40. A smidge bigger than I had envisioned for this 455, but I think it'll work nicely.

We are sold out of this model as well (3-9x 33 EFR) and I kicked my butt for not buying more before they were all gone. Luckily today I found one in my bin of used scopes and put it on Dianne's TacSol 10-22 as it is a prefect match to the light weight and accuracy of the gun and looks great (red gun/ black scope).
