Hey guys I'm looking for a cheaper Rimfire scope. Whatever your recommendation is make sure to leave a link if you can for where I can buy one. Thanks.

You ever go to a restaurant?
They give you a menu and you get to pick.
You ain't giving much info as to what you want
in a scope.
I have a 4x Scorpion on one of my 22's.
A Tasco World Class series variable AO on the other.
A Legend 3x9x40 on the old Winchester.
All under your budget.

I know I didn't give much info to go by but that's because I don't know much about scopes to be honest. I am thinking though that a 3x9 would be nice to have different levels of magnification. So you would recommend a legend 3x9?
 
I have a 4-16x46 Tasco adjustable objective on my 10-22 my wife has a low end Bushnell 3-9x40 [Savage package take off] on her Mossberg 22 we like them both, the adjustable objective should take care of parallax issues although we have not noticed a problem with either scope. the 4-16 was about $110. I own one of the smaller tube 22 scopes but it does not get used.

Ok so it seems like most scopes will do just fine. thanks for the input
 
one thing to consider when your purchasing a scope for a rimfire is the internal MOA adjustment. I purchased a nice little bushnell 6-18x40 for my 10/22 with in your budget but ended up having to sell it. alot of higher magnification scopes have less elevation adjustment and are more suited for larger calibers with less bullet drop, at 100 yards i was maxed out bringing the crosshairs out of the sweet spot in the lens. almost all companys will mention the scopes adjustment range at 100 yards on the websites. im not an optics guru by any means and i know there are many high power scopes for rimfires that work quite well just sharing what did and didnt work for myself. i only look for scopes with atleast 80 MOA adjustment at 100 yards.

Burris Signature .22 rings with the adjustable inserts will solve the elevation problem.

I wouldn't use the Legend on a rimfire if I didn't already own one.
The parallax is set I believe at a 100 yards/meters.
I enjoy the Tasco World Class 4x16x40 AO.
For just over a $100, it is a decent scope for a rimfire.
The AO lets you set the parallax to <10 yards/meters.
If you have decent eyes, a 4x may work for you.
I just pulled the Bushnell Trophy off one of my rifles and may
put it on the CZ 452 for a hoot. It's a 6x18x40 AO and is
bright and clear.
If you decide on a 3x9 configuration, be sure to get a designated
rimfire scope. Unless you are going to shoot inexcess of fifty or
so yards.
Cheers.
