I've had one on a .22 rimfire for, I dunno, 15 years?

Never changes point of impact, tracks perfectly, is a nice size to look good on a .22 sporter. The scope has good optics too.

Oh, when I first acquired a .375 H&H, I didn't have a spare scope so I moved my Leupold 3-9x EFR over. The recoil was no problem either -- Leupold says their "rimfire" scopes are fine with big bores (or powerful spring air guns, which are even harder on scopes).

The "tacticool look" has become rather popular,but unless you are going to shoot your rimfire beyond 100 yards, a big variable won't have much advantage over the trim Leupold rimfire.
