First, let me say that I never needed a scope before I hit my 40's, so I don't really know that much about them.
Father Time has hidden the rear sight, so I'm looking to mount one on my favorite .22.
I have a 1" tube, 4X scope that was given to me years ago. It's a nice scope. I like it but it's physically quite large on this small rifle and a bit of overkill. I also have a cheap "skinny" Tasco rimfire scope that came with my daughter's Marlin .22. I like the physical size of this little scope and it's slight magnification, but it is so cheaply constructed that when you barely bump it it knocks the crosshairs off. This is a common scope that comes with .22's and air rifles. I think it is a 2x power and it's tube is much smaller than the (1" tubed) 4x scope I have.
What I'd like to know is who makes a small scope like the little Tasco, but one that is of better quality? A small (longer eye relief) pistol scope could also be mounted on my little .22 in this particular application. Thanks.
