Rimfire scope that will take a beating?

[MHWASH]

My .22 Mag resides in my SxS all summer long, my current scope is always losing zero. Anyone have a recommendation for a scope that won't lose zero?

May be hard to locate these days, but the Weaver 4x32 shotgun scope from several years ago comes to mind. Seems like the parallax was set to 50 yards. They have a pretty good track record for maintaining zero for a set-and-forget option.

SWFA 10x. Just put one on my rimfire a few weeks ago and already dropped the rifle. Zero didn’t move.

I have a NF NX8 on one of my 22LR's
It works all the time

I’ll second the SWFA or a Nightforce SHV

SWFA 10x if it needs to take a beating.

The swfa ultralight would be a good option if you don't need your 22 to double as a boat anchor. A bit less durable, but much lighter and still semi-drop test approved. It also comes in a rimfire variant (if they ever get them)

I really like the SWFA ultralight 2.5x10 on one of my .22s. The other has the SWFA 10x. Both are excellent options.

My first thought was the Ultralight, but they are out of stock. Will probably slap the 10x on and try that out.

I went with a SWFA 6x for the wider field of view and to match the scope on my 223.

My .22 does double duty as a trainer I can use at home and a varmint rifle, so I like the 6x in the event I have a close shot or something is moving.

Cant go wrong with any of the SWFA’s though and no better scope in that price range.

Here’s one for sale…

I had a bdc ultralight on a 22 and found that there was more parallax than I would like, I'm not too picky and it was too much for me, so make sure if you get one it is the rimfire version. I have a SWFA 6X on my favorite 22 and really like it.

Yes - put a real scope on there, ditch the rimfire scope idea.
