Hmm...
The scope was a Weaver 2-7X rimfire scope. The bases were the standard bases available from Thomson Center to fit the rifle. I forget what kind of rings I used.
The butstock seems to be perfectly shaped for using the iron sights. At least, my face fits it perfectly for use with the irons. You may find that the rifle fits you differently. Adding the scope raises the sight line, and that made a good cheek weld a little more difficult to achieve (for me).
I also found that the Weaver scope had too much eye relief. When looped up in the sling in a good prone position, I found that my face was too close to the back of the scope to get a good view. It wasn't as bad in any of the other positions, just prone. But prone is the best position to use, if circumstances allow it. It doesn't make much sense to use a scope that permanently denies you the use of the prone position.
Besides, it's a .22, it's not like your going to be making too many 300 yards shots with it. The iron sights are perfect for 50 yards and under (where most .22 shooting takes place) and they're adequate for anything out to about 100 or 150 yards. The fiber optic sights T/C included on the rifle are prety nice as iron sights go.
That Weaver scope I bought for this rifle is sitting on my shelf unused. Anyone wanna make me an offer for it?
