Howdy,
 
I'm considering a Leupold VX3 in the 2.5-8x36 for my new Ruger 77 22 Hornet (Wood/Blue).  Is there any other scope, you shooters reccomend, and what rings should I buy to secure the scope?  I was thinking of the Leupold low rings in Matte to match the scope.
 
Gun will be mainly used for hunting less than 150 yards, with occassional target practice.
 
Thanks gents and merry christmas!

What about the VX2 3-9x33 EFR with AO?

I mounted a Leupold vx-1 2-7x33 I've had in my gun safe for awhile  on a 77/22Hornet today and had to use medium Ruger rings for bolt knob clearance. Interfered with low rings. Just so you know.
 
Best
