Scope for a savage mark 2 w/ accutrigger - Nikon ProStaff Target EFR 3-9x40 Rifle Scope

I had never put this kind of money in a .22 scope before but decided it was time due to the squirrel infestation of my fruit trees. It has turned out to be a very usable gun and scope combination. The ten yard parallax and 9 power is perfect for small game in my area. Over 100 squirrels so far, all head shots. Highly recommend using a benchrest to sight in this scope. Also find the ammo manufacturer that best shoots in your gun. And if the gun is new, get it broke in. This scope with a benchrest will show up the problems with the gun or ammo, but once you get it worked out, you will have an incredibly accurate gun.
Pros: Ten yard parallax, 9 power, the zero reset turrents, and bright light
Cons: I would prefer metal on the crosshair caps but have had no problem with the plastic.
