8X? 10X? 12X? For My NEW 222?

[dogz]

either the 10 or the 12 would be fine with me, years gone back now I did a lot of pd shooting and chuck shooting with a 240 Page and a 12X Leo with a dot. Loved that scope!

12x

12x or more Leupold 6.5 x 20

My 2 pennies worth, If you are going to really use it for varmint hunting I would go with the 8X for the FOV, I had a 10X on my Coyote Rig and I had trouble finding them if they were moving

I couldn't make 8X work on a coyote rifle enough better to talk me out of the 12X

Pick one and be thankful for the gift. Hopefully there is a significant sentimental side to the story.

l actually ended up with a 10x and 12x... l like BOTH too. 10x a bit better because it has target knobs.. 0ptics are crystal clear. l can see 22cal holes @100yds with either. T Knobs on the 10x have 'Clicks'. 12x w/o t knobs are friction. 10x centered quite well on range/azimuth. App 200 clicks up/dn. 200 rt/lft. Came back 100 on BOTH. Shooting @25yds /50/100. Only a slight adj done@100yds.
l'm thinking l could use an 8X now

I would take the 12X, flip it on Ebay and buy a Leupold or Nikon 6.5-20. Perfect scope for 222. Nikon is on my BSA 222.

Think you mean 20X w/internal adjustments.

https://www.vintagegunscopes.com/target/lyman-all-american-20x-permacenter-crosshair-near-mint. (this company is a scam, prices are pet coon crazy)

It's a fine scope although coatings have come a long way in the last 30-40 years.

Should bring +- $400 on Ebay.

Not what I'm seeking.
