Hi everybody,

Im looking for a scope to mount on my new G22. I own a Tasco Target/Varmint Mildot AO 2,5-10x42 wich Im very satisfied, but I think this new gun deserves an upgrade!

I just have around $200-230 to spend, and I want a scope similar to the Tasco but more magnificacion. I heard about Simmons WTC18, but I cant get one here in Argentina, where I live. I also want to buy a Leupold but
none of them have AO at the price ranged.

I will use it at the range and for night hunting (foxes and Liebres, like rabbits http://www.arkive.org/species/ARK/mammals/Lepus_europaeus/)

Any help will be appreciated!!!!

Thanks for your time!

Forget about the trascho of any flavor and consider:

 

Bushnell Elite 3200 5-15x40 with the FireFly Reticle.....$338.95

Bushnell Elite 3200 7-21x40 Mil Dot.....$388.95

Nikon Buckmaster 6-18x40 Target......$289.95

 

We only do business in the U.S. so I would suggest you try eBay for a good deal.

Thanks for your info!

Yep, I know you cant do bussiness unless I live in US, but Ill try Ebay as you suggest!

I realized that a high magnification scope is too large for my Walther G22 which measures about 28 inches!

Is there a compact high magnification scope?

How about the new Simmons Master Series? Im very interested in the Aetec 800866 3,8-12x44 AO Illuminated Truplex. this one is smaller than the ones you suggest, but still a bit large for my tiny
weapon.

I really appreciate your help and forgive my english!!!!

Thanks for your time!!

How about the new Short Mag from Burris, its a 4.5-14x32?

 

Non of the new Meade/Simmons scopes have shipped yet, it will be a while before we know anything about them.
