On the vssf I used to own I had a leupold 6.5-20x40................was happy with that, I have aquired another and thinking of either a zeiss conquest 4-12x56 or the Zeiss 6.5-20x50. Gun is a sako 75 Varmint, it will see a reasonable amount of spotlighting etc. Couple of mates telling me I will regret only having 12 at the top end. | ||

I would lean towards the 4.5x14x44 or 50mm objective. I'm using one on a 22-250 varmint gun and find it to be a nice addition. Dave If Accurate Rifles are Interesting.........I've Got Some Savage Rifles That Are Getting Mighty Interesting..... | |||

My Browning 1885 single shot 22-250 mounts a Bausch & Lomb Balvar 6x24 scope. Not produced anymore, but top of the line 20 years ago. | |||

I have a Rem 700 VLS and have the Burris Black Diamond 4x16x50 on it.  The Ballistic Mil Dot scope is made for the 22-250 shooting the 55 gr bullet at 3640 fps. It is a big scope but looks OK on the varmint guns. It is bright and clear. ____________________________________ There are those who would misteach us that to stick in a rut is consistency - and a virtue, and that to climb out of the rut is inconsistency - and a vice. - Mark Twain | Chinese Proverb: When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others. ___________________________________ | |||

Mine is a sporter weight (as opposed to heavy varmint) rifle and wears a Leupold VariX-III 4.5 - 14 x 40. Works fine for any shot I can make. | |||

My 22-250 is a predator calling rifle. I just replaced the scope on it with a new Nikon Monarch 3-12x42. Bob There is room for all of God's creatures....right next to the mashed potatoes. http://texaspredatorposse.ipbhost.com/   | |||

My "walking varminters" carry Swaro 2.5-10X42 and 4-12's. My prairie dog guns sport Zeiss 6.5-20X50's, and that is a really nice piece of glass, way better (brighter, clearer) than the same Leupold tactical 30mm when compared side by side, same money, and repeatable adjustments. I also like the side-mounted adjustable parallax control rather than the AO on the Swaro. | |||

Hey mike I like that scope because of the reticle that is specifically made for the 22-250 but it is not as clear as the Conquests. I have a 4.5x14x44 Conquest and it gathers as much light as the 50mm Burris and it is much much clearer. It costs just a little less than the Burris. Burris does not make bad optics, better than Leupold but not as good as Nikon, but way behind Kahles and Zeiss. Sorry to disappoint you.  ____________________________________ There are those who would misteach us that to stick in a rut is consistency - and a virtue, and that to climb out of the rut is inconsistency - and a vice. - Mark Twain | Chinese Proverb: When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others. ___________________________________ | |||

I have a older Rem 700 Varmint Special in 22-250 with an 8-32x50 BSA Contender. I cannot complain about this cheap scope. The rifle shoots about 3/8" groups & both the rifle & scope have survived two trips to Wyoming. I am considering replacing it with a Burris Signature Select though. I have a Burris spotting scope & a FFII 6.5-20x50 on another varmint rifle that have I have been impressed with. | |||

My 222 has a Hakko (the Nightforce maker) in a 30mm 8x32x56. It looks like the Hovel telescope and insn't worth the drama. I would probably go 8-32 on a smaller scale or 6-24. | |||

Currently, I have a straight 6x on my 22-250 for use a calling rifle for Coyotes. Don | |||
