I need to mount a scope on a Remington 511. Is it feasible to mount a centerfire scope on a rimfire rifle? I have in mind a Weaver k-4.
I have only had one experience with an inexpensive 22 rimfire scope. I just had to have an el cheapo 40mm bell scope for a 10-22. Shot the reticle right out of it in less than 100 rounds.
If I put a scope on any rifle today, I use a centerfire scope from Weaver, Leupold or Nikon.
I can always take one of those scopes off a 22-250 or .308 and put it on a 22 rimfire.
I can't go the other way and after my experience, I don't try. I just get good glass and call it good.
There are rimfire scopes by the same makers, and of the same quality as the centerfire scopes you mentioned.
Blah blah blah over parallax, like it's the end of the world if you use a centerfire scope on a 22 LR.
