What sort of rifle? Bolt, lever, pump, semi-auto, or single-shot?

Heavy or light contour barrel?

2-7x28 or 3-9x33 on light contour barreled rifles.

4-12x40AO or 4-16x42AO on heavy contour barreled rifles.

Not long ago I bought some Bushnell A17 scopes for some 17HM2 and 17HMR rifles. This is a 3.5-10x36AO that CDNN sells for $50. I'm not a hyper-critical optics guy and if you are, you probably will find something not to like about this scope.

My #1 tree squirrel rifle is an Anschutz 1502 that has a Weaver V16 installed on it. I've tried dozens of rifles and scope combination for squirrel hunting and like the V16 as well as any that I've tried.
