Scope for Smallbore Silhouette Shooting

[jdwild6343]

I am getting started in silhouette shooting. I currently am using a CZ457 .22 LR with a Vortex Diamondback Tactical 6-24 x 50 scope. I am struggling to get used to the scope and hit more targets. I am just not getting a clear picture looking into the scope. I've adjusted the position of the scope to position it better for eye relief, played with the focus and magnification and still the picture does not look clear. It also is measured in MRAD's, not MOA. Other experienced shooters have said it might not be the right scope for what I am trying to do and might be a more suitable scope for long-range shooting. What suggestions might people have for a better scope for what I am trying to do?

On a budget, the Arken EPL-4 6-24 works very well. The VHR reticle center dot is plenty small for smallbore and the adjustable side parallax ensures a crystal clear target. The eyebox is likewise excellent and it is a very easy optic to stay behind for long periods.
