Favorite inexpensive optics

BSA gets a bad rap however I hear that the BSA Sweet Series is actually pretty damn decent. Does anyone use this scope at all for their rimfire?

I bought one (Sweet 17), but have been afraid to mount it. A Bushnell 4200 AO is doing a great job so I'm afraid to mess with success. It seems significantly heavier than similar scopes.

Bushnell Banner 4-12x40 AO is the best bet for your budget

got me a ZOS - actually 5 of them total for all my rifles -- there 10-40x50 IR with side focus -- THERE GREAT for the $150 that I paid ( at the door )
got one on my savage BSEV 22 WMR -- can see the hole like it was the moon at 100yds
of course you can remove the side wheel and sunshade and it would look less intimidating

Where did you order ZOS scopes from i want one i have been using NC star and Scorpion just depends what im puting it on.

Look for a good used one. I found an older bushnell legend 6-18X40AO with target turrets(made in japan)used in like new condition for $100. it is as good and as clear as a friends 3200 but much cheaper.
BTW this is on my savage MkIITR clone

Bushnell Rimfire, is a good place to start. Not doing it for you, sell and upgrade.

Vism from Candaammo, use it out to 220m with my target 10/22 and on my Norc AR

BSA deer hunter in a fixed 2.5x and long eye relief. It's fixed optic so very little moving parts and great light transmission. I like the simplicity of this scope and low power that I mounted one on my Ruger no. 1 in 35 Whelen too.

I had one of those on my first .22, but I upgraded to a Mueller APV 4.5-14. The Bushnell is still going strong though.

Where are you getting your mueller optics? I've been looking all over and it's very difficult to find.

I just bought a stoeger airgun scope and put it on my Norinco JW15. It is a 3-9X40, with target knobs and adjustable objective (15m to infinity). Paid $67.50 for it at my local shop (GMK Armouries). Clear as a bell and repeatable.

x3 for whitefalls, good people, gave me a very nice discount on a discontinued mueller red dot and were good to respond to emails.

Any of you guys use an Mueller APT? Opinions? How fine is the reticle? Considering an old Bushnell Legend 5-15x on my next HMR if I get one. Might be tempted to go Mueller again.
