I have 10/22 that needs a new scope. (See attached picture) It is a deluxe model with the 18" stainless barrel. I've had it for better than a decade and it's had the cheap silver 3-9X40 Bushnell on it the whole time. I have it mounted on some see through rings. The gun is used mostly for "plinking" with the occasional rabbit, squirrel, or rat (again, see picture) hunt. I've decided a scope upgrade is in order.
I've been looking at the Leupold VX-1 2-7x33 with the LR reticle (currently $199). Some of my plinking goes out to 200 yards, and beyond, and I thought the extra aiming points would be helpful over the standard duplex. I'm looking for reviews on this scope or other suggestions in this range. I'm not opposed to another 3-9, but I thought the 2x on the lower end might be nice for rabbits on the run. I know Redfield, Nikon, and others make some scopes in this range but I don't have any experience with them.
Thanks!
