Mini Bolt Scope Suggestions

Tyee Dave · 02-08-2012, 11:38 AM

I'm going to mount a scope on my son's Henry Mini Bolt 22lr and was looking for some suggestions regarding brand and model. Price range $75-150. The gun is pretty light with short stock, so I don't want to overwhelm the weapon either. It will be used for small game hunting and I'm not expecting a whole lot of shots much beyond 50 yards. Don't know crap about pistol scopes and required eye relief, but their size would be ideal (I think). Can you help me out?

I use a 4x shotgun scope on my Marlin bolt 22. It has a wide field of view, is compact and is plenty of power for 50 or so yards.
