The scope is a very good buy for the money. With good bore sighting, there is no need to mount something more expensive than this on a .22 rimfire rifle. Nice optics. And windage and elevation are actually not that hard to adjust. The only problem I see with the scope is that the clamp of the rings that go with it is too narrow; while it mounts on the narrow/dovetail rail of a 10-22, it does not mount on a weaver rail, which has a wider width. So, if one plans to use this scope on a rifle with a weaver rail (like the 597 VTR), make sure that the separate cost of buying scope rings (about ten bucks) that are compatible with a weaver rail is taken into account in the purchase.
