Back when DCM/CMP was selling them pretty cheap, I picked up a Winchester 52D and an H&R M12. These are single shot very heavy barrel models, and with some small luck I'm going to put them back in service. I've got Redfield sights on them now but I bought Ken Viani scope mounts for both of them. I had used a cheap 24x Tasco on the H&R but it went the way of most cheap scopes and fogged up.
So for 50-150 yard usage, indoor or outdoor, whats a good or proper scope for a match grade .22 rifle like these? It would be nice if it focussed at 25 yards for sighting in but as long as it is clear at least 50 yards, I can work with it.
Thanks

I like my Simmons 22 Mag. It's a 3-9 and I get the recommendation here somewhere.
I also like my Weaver Classic 2.5-7 x 28.
Don't know if they're appropriate.

I've got a Mueller APV on my Savage MK II (heavy barrel). I think it ran about 60 bucks, and it's variable from 4.5-14x. I use it to plink at clay birds out to 150 yds with boring regularity.
