Very good scope for the money - Simmons 22 MAG 3-9x32mm Rimfire Rifle Scopes w/ Rings

I used a silver 22 Mag for many, many years on top of a Marlin 983S. I purchased it when I bought the rifle and it worked so well I honestly forgot that it was a budget scope. Later, when I had the funds and the time, I upgraded only because I could, not because I needed to.

If you're an optics snob it's pretty easy to dismiss a $50 scope but I'm here to tell you, the 22Mag is a little gem. It worked amazingly well on my .22WMR and never gave me a bit of trouble. I've punched a lot of paper and dropped a lot of small game and it never missed a beat. I think I was even using the included rings! It's not $1000 glass and you shouldn't expect it to be, but if you want a solid rimfire scope with a proven track record, it's hard to go wrong with Simmons.
