No i deer Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Any recommendations on a scope for longrange rimfire shooting. I'm not intending on spending silly money. Cheers NID Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodlander Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Sightron S111, 6-24x50. I have white electrical tape on the turret, with my drops marked on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted January 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 I have 2 x 8 - 32 x 56 sightons so a 6 x 24 x 50 not a bad idea as I really like mine. Cheers NID Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Buy another 8-32 SIII, cant go wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangbangman Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Just make sure that whatever you buy has enough elevation adjustment range to reach your chosen max distance without forfeiting a sensible zero distance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trigger73 Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 Yup sightron S3 6-24 or the 8-32, they're excellent. Brilliant sight picture and loads of travel without the need for a 20moa or similar rail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted January 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 I did look at the element optic helix. The video did make it sound very good regarding the tracking of the turrets and a fair bit cheaper than the sightron.. It also had a zero stop unlike the sightron.. I have made my own zero stop on my sightrons.. Simple but not aesthetically perfect.. does the job thought.. It goes 1 click below my zero. I am a fan of the sightrons I have.

OSOK Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 SWFA 10x42mm ....... Very fine ret with floating dot and 140 plus MOA with another 42 MOA of holdover ............ 22LR's with subs eat MOA like you can't Imagine ! It all depends on what you call long range i guess OSOK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No i deer Posted January 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 Any of you using a CZ457 LRP.. what do you think of them..?? I had a look at a voodoo renegade on YouTube but I can't see me spending that much money on a rimfire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsatten Posted January 14, 2022 Report Share Posted January 14, 2022 Yep ive got one, very nice bit of kit, the stock is great, and the rifle feels very nice to use, only one issue due to the scope rail not being a proper picatinny rail one has to use separate rings, mono mount wont fit! hence my tier one unimount sitting in cupboard, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted January 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 How well does it shoot and with what ammo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newsatten Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 Couldn’t really say tbh, Used it at 100 on a McQueens 200 target, which has a V about 2inches I guess? only used Eley Sport , the gun held the V Used it at 300 on figure 11’ s full elevation on my NF and 2/3rds down the ladder! I’m sure a quicker round would do better! great trigger, and proper bolt release, the package works well, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted January 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 The mcqueens target for 200yds is 1 inch vbull.. The second ring is 4 inches.. I've shot and marked mcqueens hundreds of times.. It's my favorite cof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsatten Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 Not sure if it was as Good as an 1 inch but yeah it was there or there about, im sure a good shooter would do very well with the gun, this was on Hythe mid November breezy but not a gale, I’m a pleasure shooter and now using 22’s and my pistol calibre rifles a lot more , just pure economics , they are way cheaper to shoot!

newsatten Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 Yeah I guess it wouldn’t be a problem apart from obviously the factory rail is part of the reason for buying this model so one has to lay out more cash ! The factory one is nice , dovetailed and located by locking screws that fit into dimples in the top rail, as I’ve said it’s all very nicely done and at around 1 k it would be difficult to replicate using after market parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted January 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2022 Out plinking again. Set up for 200yds.. First shot hit the bulldog clip holding the target on the road pin.. Quick alternative I used the bulldog clip to hold the target on the hardox.. Bullet splash wrecks the target but you can see the 5 holes. Again used the 25 moa in the reticle.. A shade high this time.. Trying to shoot strait into the wind.. The hardox shows the hits better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted January 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2022 2 more targets.. Stuck 2 labels on the hardox and shot most of it off.. 3 shots nearly touching 😊🤪. Some wind took shots off on the black n white target Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted January 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2022 Now we're talking.. A 70mm orange target reversed for my wonky eyes.. One out the 4 clipped the right edge 😜🙃😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted January 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2022 Shot off the roof of my pickup with a bipod and a bean bag thing.. Well pleased with the results... I just realised this is on the wrong thread 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
