help, i am looking for ideas for an inexpensive scope for my marlin 22lr bolt action rifle. i dont know much at all about scopes but want one just for target shooting and for the fun of it! thanks
 
My advice based on almost 50yrs of shooting is avoid the junk and pick up a decent scope. Starting with the basics I always avoid ATN, Barska, BSA, NcStar, and most Simmons and Tasco products. Second you'll want to go with a scope designed for a rimfire rifle and not a centerfire rifle.

The best bang for a quality scope is the Weaver RV7. Reviews. It's a good quality scope optimized for rimfire rifles. That's decent scope that will last you a lifetime. Another good option is a Sightron S1 3-9x32 rimfire.

I agree with scholling on the Weaver scope. They are a good value for the money, and 2-7X is just about perfect. I own several Leupold rimfire scopes in 2-7X, and I prefer that magnification range for close up to far away work.
 
Pilothunter posted this in another thread yesterday. If I were you, I'd jump on it:
One other scope, that's been mentioned here before causing me to purchase one, the very good Weaver 4X, reduced from $245.99 to $79.99. This is a 50yd parallax scope, just as most .22RF scopes. It is a great scope for a hunting .22. You'll have to call Natchez to ensure this correct price:

The scope IS in stock and will be sold for $79.99, I was just told.
