I've never heard of Fairfeild, but this scope seems to give the best bang for the buck...Does anyone have any experience with these , and can give me a review ? There don't seem to be any reviews out there on this one yet.

Same here. I have the APV 4.5-14x40AO and love it
For the money that scope looks good, give it a try and be the first on your block to write a review

I have a cheap $75 NcStar on my 10/22 and it works pretty good. That is all the advice I have on cheap scopes. :cheers:

:hurray:Yours is quite a bit more expensive than what I'm getting, Marc.....Well, I just ordered it, as well as 800 rounds of 38 grain American Eagle, hollow point .22 ammo. .....With shipping and joining the Sportsman Guide club, the total was $136.23....With the club membership, I'll get a $20.00 coupon when the stuff arrives, for anything, and be eligible for the club prices, as well......There are also a bunch of really good coupon codes available as well..( I used a $10.00 off one for this order).

$136.23, out the door, shipped.....The scope is on backorder until the 24th though....:sadangel:

I also have two of these on the way, so My Ruger 10/22 will be complete....

Good deal :seasix: I will admit that even a more expensive scope does not improve the accuracy of a 10/22 :rofl: Save up and get a used marlin 60 :seasix:

Unless you are competitively shooting, I wouldn't us a high dollar scope on a 10/22. I put a Bushnell on mine and it works quite well for for what I do with it. But bull barrell shooting where you need to be really consistent, Leupold would probably be my choice. Plus made right here in the USA!:cheers:

:yesnod: I was thinking the same thing, but, what the hell....That scope is relatively cheap, for the amount of bells and whistles that you get, so I got it.....You have to admit....If it lives up to it billing, it's a damn nice scope for the price......

For $70 you really can't go wrong. If it's not that great you can always sell it for $50 and try something else.
