[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2564713, member: 115658"] Whatever - it must have adjustable parallax like down to 15 or less yards for a .22LR. Side by side or up & down movement upon eye position is unacceptable. In my modest collection the scopes that are able to focus with no parallax at 15 yards out are: Weaver 4-14X40 GS, Weaver T10 & T24 (aluminum tube), & Sightron 4-20X50 STac SF (clunky with rough edges but works good) & a Leupold 6-20X40 EFR AO. Leupold makes a AO 3-9X36? Freedom ntended for .22LR use. Lots of .22LR use at 15 yards, 45 feet. I shoot red color 1 inch hard candy at 100 yds. Pop cans at 200 when it is calm are fun. For maximum effective .22LR use on rodents is 75 yards. Using a 20X at 75 yards puts you real close to the rodent for head shots using their beady eyes for reference. Most center fire scopes have a minimum adjustable focus/parallax range of 50 yards or fixed parallax set at 100 yards - not good for .22LR use.. Lots of .22LR ammo - I'm shooting cheap Aguila & CCI Blazer now, about $0.11 - $0.13 per round. I also have a .17 HMR - cost about 0.40 per round but very effective at 120 yards or so. Easily beats the .22LR at 100. [/QUOTE]
