Scope with parallax adjustements

Just choose the magnification and scope you want with parallax adjustment in your budget. Don’t worry about it being rimfire or not. I have always bought regular high power rifle scopes for my rimfire guns. With one exception, I had bought a Leupold Freedom rimfire 3-9x40 for my Ruger SR-22 and this turned out to be more of a curse than anything. The parallax is set to 60 yards, yes it is a very clear scope BUT once the range gets to 75+ yards it starts to get fuzzy. Looking to replace it with a high power scope with parallax adjustment.
 
You should check out TRACT Optics. From what I understand, they were started up by a couple former Nikon engineers (once Nikon got out of the optics game). They sell direct from their website, and they have a 4-12x40 AO scope for $355 CDN. Now, I don't have one yet, but I should have it here by next week for my CZ. Lifetime warranty and made in the Philippines, just like many of the Nikons were.
 
The Bushnell Trophy XLT 4 - 12 x 40 with AO is cristal clear, love it.

The Tasco Varmint 2.5 - 12 x42 with AO is "meh", stay away lol.

Vortex® Diamondback HP 1" Riflescope is one to look at. Goes on sale at Cabelas for $400 often. 4X16, and has parallax adjustment.
 
^ ^ Agreed - You can get better quality with Arken, Athlon, Bushnell, etc . . . for your money. Shop around with Sponsors, there are some good options.

Diamondback HP has been the only "not made in China" scope recommended in this thread lol.
I'd take Philippines made over China any day.

Looks like their scopes range from $1600Cdn to $600 or so.... ?


Edit, found it... :)

"T-plex" reticle that looks like a German #4, Capped turrets, and the parallax adjustment is at the end of the scope.

Side parallax is nice, and depending on shooting styles, exposed turrets or hold over marks are also nice.

As would I.. in fact I did it twice with the Diamondback HP 4-16x42. I bought the first one used on the EE, great glass for the money and zero problems with the scope after several years of shooting on both rimfire and centre fire rifles.
When I needed another scope, I went for the second one, again no problems.
