Hello, im looking for a new scope for my .22lr as ive been saving up for a bit and ive decided to that I cant stand the horrid 6-8 x 34 Tasco thingy that's attached to my lovely 1960s Anschutz .22lr any longer. I got it thrown in with the rifle to get me going. Id like something that's going to work well in low light and in conjunction with my Ledray tactical scope torch and also from the 4x4 with my friend using his big roof mounted lamp. Ive been offered the following second hand scopes from various shops and the Docter scope by a friend:
Leopold (gloss finish) 3-9 x 50 £175
Leopold (mat finish) 3-9 x50 £195
Burris 4.5-14x42 £195
Docter optic zf 6x42 reticule no 8 £200
Someone warned me about the Docter optic scope as they said that its a centerfire scope and wont have the lateral adjustment to enable me to zero my .22lr at 50 m ? I cant understand why this would be the case ? Admittedly the person who told me that was trying to sell me the Burris scope
Id originally planned on a Zeiss scope but I appreciate now that thats a bit of an overkill for a 22lr and to be honest I cant afford one anymore as £200 is my limit now following an arse spanking by the tax man.
Id really appreciate some nice non biased advice.
kind regards, Olaf
