Leupold 2x7 under 200$ Midway.

I am looking hard at the VX2 Leupold 2X7...

Leuopold like ede said.
I once put a red dot on a 10/22 but that didn’t last long. The dot was too big for hunting squirrels.
If you can’t afford a quality scope I always recommend saving until you can.
That way you won’t have an extra scope lying around after you find a way/reason to replace the cheap one.
I give the same advice on guns, holsters, Jeeps, etc.

I agree.. I have high end glass and triggers on all my rifles.
Also the red dot won’t work for me because I have to make head shots on beavers with it..
I have decided on the Leupold Vx2 2X7.

I'm a big fan of vortex optics myself. Great quality, supurb quality, even among their lower end options. And a unbeatable warranty.

This is a great scope for a .22LR IMO: $149

Vortex has tons of options in your price range, so it really depends on what magnification, recital and size you want.

Looks good. Have not pulled the trigger yet.
Will give it a good look...

The Leupold in 2x7 or 3x9 would be perfect. If the VX 2 series is out of your $200 budget, then look at the new Leupold VX Freedom series, it's getting good reviews and I think it's $199 tops, maybe less.

Thanks, Funny just a few days before you posted I did install a Leupold freedom 2X7.
Great scope for the money. Low rings nice and compact. The rifle is a tack driver.
Paid $180.00 out the door for the scope.

Everyone should make a point to have an old Weaver K4 lying around as a spare or to put on a new rifle until you figure out or save for what you want permanently.

Old steel El Paso built K4's can be bought at gunshows or on Ebay for $50 or so without breaking a sweat.

Funny! Me and one of my employees actually have a few (builder) scopes that we just use till the build is complete, Then put the good glass on..
I ended up w Leupold, again. lol
