Is this a good scope for a Ruger 10/22? It's a youth shooter.

It would work fine. But... a youth hunter rig works better with a fixed 4x scope. This is a fine, budget priced, scope but kids have trouble sometimes selecting the correct power setting. Also it is best to let youth use iron sights first. You can migrate from iron sights to a scope easy enough... but going from a scope to iron is hard. Plus young eyes seldom need the magnification our old eyes need. If you do give them a scope... my recommendation is a very small fixed power scope with true see through rings. This will allow them to use the iron sights for close shots. True see through scope rings are hard to find... but they do exist. It would work fine.

This scope is meant to be used for big game with centerfire calibers. There is a model with an adjustable objective that is better suited to rimfire rifles because of the AO. No it is not too much for a .22 rimfire, but you would be better served with the rimfire model. It is a nice scope for the money.

This is an excellent scope.. But to much for a 22. I would go with Leupold Rimfire.I put this scope on a 270.

I wear bifocals and also use this indoors and outdoors, and find it to be quite a good scope out to 200 yards for 22 caliber and up. Anything farther this isn't what you would want.

Yes, but you must have the pic/weaver rail. The Ruger 10/22 scope mount that comes with the rifle is not very good and come loose easily. I would recommend using Loctite 222 ( the blue stuff ) on the rail mounting screws to keep it tight. You should be ok. I have this same sight on my S & W MP 15/22 and it works fine.

Like a champ. You may need a rail to mount it to. Not sure what yours comes with for scope mounting. I have one on a Ruger 10\22 and it works great. I'm shooting 200 yards. Nice magnification and pretty good optics for $50 bucks. Aim Sports was great to work with and good fast service. You may need a scope mount which you can also get from Aim sports and probably have it all by the end of the week. Good luck and happy shooting.

Hey J R I am glad you saved yourself some grief. The scope in question is for 22lr rim fire stuff with little recoil if any. I get scared when I handle the scope ruff as i got a bad one out the box that would not zero. Better to get the ones made for ,223/5.56. Nikon makes scopes for those caliber guns with a BDC reticle

yes. nice scope. I put it on a heavy barrel 22 for my son when he competition shoots.

I would say this scope is a bit of overkill for the 10/22, but you could mount it with the correct rings. The magnification on this scope would be good out to at least 400yds and I rarely shoot a 22 past 100yrds. I would suggest this same scope in a 3x9x40 and stick with the Nikon because they are the best for the money.

This will fit on any Picatinny or MIL-STD-1913 rail. If your Ruger 10/22 has this type of rail system then yes it will work otherwise no it will not.

Its really good in the 2-6 range, but will work fine up in the teens. 14-16 get pretty hazy though. 16 is barley usable. Great scope for the money though. Mildot comes in handy.

It is not a scout scope, so the eye relief is not set up to be mounted too far forward. If you can mount it on the receiver then I think it is a good overall scope. The 7X would work for me at the range of a .308 but if you are stretching your shots out further than 500 yds with any regularity I would consider a more powerful scope.

Yes, I have one mounted on the small "youth" version of the 10/22 and it's fantastic! I love this product and wish they made them to fit more rifles.

I doubt that this is the scope for you. I use on my 10/22 and it is a good little scope, but with a 308, I would have my doubts. Also, eye relief is closer to 3.5" at best. Look at Midway Simmons Whitetail scope. That is what I have on my Mosin.

Yes, it's a decent scope for the money. There's better out there, you can get more by dropping the laser and getting an ncstar or bsa scope. Some utg stuff is ok too.

It is a standard weaver, picatinny rail. I believe most Ruger 10-22 come with that style of rail, so it should fit fine.

mine is on a ruger 10-22 and it is fine for that purpose, it seems well made, but did not impress as particularly robust. If you have something to use it on if it does not suit the ar-15, it is worth the price, but I cannot speak to it's to stand up to heavier sustained shooting
