Looking to replace the scope on ky kids'.44 H&R handi rifle and to put one on my ruger 10/22. Any suggestions or pros/cons? The ruger will be for target and squirrels. The .44 obviously for deer.

For both rifles I'd go with either a 2-7 power or 3-9 power scope with a 50 yard parallax. There are several brands of good scopes; I have a Weaver 3-9 X40 m/m power scope on my CZ Model 452. On your .44 Magnum rifle you might consider Leupold's 2-7 power (Heavy Duplex) shotgun or M/L scope, as this type scope will handle the recoil better and has a bit longer eye relief.

I have a FX2 2.5X Ultralight on my 44 levergun and definitely like it. I like some magnification on y .22's - squirrels are a small target at some distance so 3-9 or even better some in the 4-12 range; how much are you looking to spend?

I have Nikon Prostaff and Buckmaster on several guns, centerfire & rimfire, they have served me well for quite a few years.

Leupold or Nikon top all my guns.

I have a bsa .22 special www.amazon.com/BSA-3-9-22-Special-Scope/dp/B0002AP1BQOn my 10/22 and I am very rough on that gun it goes out of zero on me from time to time but i am in the woods at night with it a lot and it is always hitting something I'm sure if all I did was light plinking or less heavy duty hunting I wouldn't ever have a problem I don't know on the other gun |

3x9 on both would be my choice,Simmons is what I usually go with on my rifles.
