Hi,

Looking for a cheapie scope for a .22 for some good old fashion plinking.

Bushnell Trophy XLT any good?

Other suggestions welcome...

They're just a cheap little scope.

Nothing really exciting, but can't really knock them for the price?

I'd check out Weaver for the money.

Cheaper than the XLT and a better scope to my eye.

Yes I bought an XLT 4-12. Good enough for a 150 yd plinker, that's about it.
My old 3-9 Simmons is clearer at 100 yds than the Bushnell.

Most gun shops have good second hand scopes.

Another vote for just being a plinker.

Hardcast has got it, for the same money you could get a better quality second hand scope.
