Cheap scope for rimfire

This is a nice scope and for that price is great. This group was shot with that scope on my cz 455 varmint.
I’m to lazy to deal with the classifieds (and the 50 PMs I will get offering me $30 for it).
But if anyone in this thread wants it, it’s still available.
I’m in North Andover. And this is a silver MAPV451440S
4.5-14x40AO
Pretty decent scope. Just checked it in the low light, and it is very acceptable at dusk. Will try again in a few minutes. Wondering when it will peter out. Still haven't hit anything with it yet. Maybe I'll put it on the 10/22 and go to the range when it opens tomorrow afternoon.
Not sure how much the 561022 would have rung up for. It was just laying on the shelf beside the 511022's. It looked like the 511022's were stacked over a $29.99 shelf label.
No idea.
Just ordered a Mueller 8-36x44 with the Target retical to put on a CZ455 Varmint Tacticool. Can't wait to dial it in.
Really? I have a Simmons that cost me $36 that works good too (if your eyes are better than mine lmao)

So I finally got to the range today with my Leupold VX-Freedom 2-7x33 mounted by the Leapers Accushot One Piece Mount on my Marlin 795.
This package weighs 5 lbs 8oz, which I really like. I have always liked the fact that the Marlin was light weight and wanted a light weight scope (this weighs 11.1 oz). I had originally thought to go with a fixed 4x scope but after trying some out decided that I wanted additional magnification and I am glad I did. I won't shoot this beyond 100 yds, and mainly at 60-75 yds but really like being able to go to 7x on those distances. Below is a pic of 4x and 7x looking towards an 8" steel target (to the right of the crosshairs).
4x
7x
The Leupold is bright, has the magnification I wanted and is lightweight so I am happy so far. I realize that it doesn't fit the "cheap scope for a rimfire" but I am the type to buy once, cry once. We will see how it holds zero as it get knocked around and such and am interested to see what I can get for groups with this set up.

I just picked up the Weaver Classic "ALUMINUM BASE PAIR MATTE" for the 10/22 at $6.97. Now I can take it off the BB gun and put it on the .22. Yes, that 7X is easier on the eyes for that distance for target shooting, but I figure the 4X is better than the 0X I have with the stock steel sights and my old eyes. Besides, most of my shooting, even at targets, will be under 100 yards, and even at 100, it is now 4 TIMES CLOSER than it was.
I have Simmons 3-9x32 that works real nice, just not powerful enough for what I want to do.
