I have a 2-7x 32(?) on mine & like it. But most importantly, what power or physical size you choose, should should have have fixed parallax set for RF or if adjustable, it should go to 25 yds. IMO. Well, unless you plan on doing all your shooting at a 100 yards & beyond.
That would be my choice too. I have one mounted to my 77/22 RSI and it sits nice and low to the barrel in Ruger rings. The Duplex crosshair is really fine compared to my other Leupolds and gunning a red squirrel last weekend in the top of a maple tree took me a bit to sort that crosshair out from the foliage. Being able to zoom up to 9x for a head shot was rather satisfying. A lot of the crew shoot rimfires farther than I do, so that EFR really focuses things and fixes parallax down to my usual 10-20 yard red squirrel range.
My other auto is a .45
The bitterness of poor quality is remembered long after the sweetness of low price has faded from memory
I have a 4.5-14 on mine just because that is what I had laying around at the time. If I were starting from scratch, a 2.5-8 or 2-7 would be nice. I might go with a 3-12 just to have a little extra power for shooting at paper from the bench.
I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects
I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....
I would start out with that Vari-x II 3x9 that you already have. Give it a try. You might be happy with that. Its a pretty nice scope. I had one on a .22 years ago and it worked just fine for me.

This is the answer IMO. If you find that parallax is excessive then do a search for the thread on how to adjust the parallax yourself. It is simple to do and only takes about 5 minutes, the beauty of is that you can set the parallax for your most used distance and be good to go.

223 Rem, my favorite cartridge - you can't argue with truckloads of dead PD's and gophers.

EVERY scope cited thus far,is a piece of fhuqking schit,if you actually shoot. Hint.
You gals crack me the fhuqk up! Hint...............

The bolt lift on those is very high, so you'll have to keep the ocular bell on the small side so that it clears.
This. The older Leupolds/Weavers/etc aren’t much of an issue, but many newer scopes that would normally fit fine at the objective (barrel) end, are going to need one size higher rings to prevent interference with the bolt at the ocular.
We put a Nikon prostaff rimfire on Dad’s 77/17, and it was fine with mediums, but the scope will “just” touch the power ring “bump” if the mag is in just the wrong spot.
Get a 4x mofo with momo and smooch some 2 twat 2s.
Or get off Broke Dick mountain, and get whatever scope works best for you.

I've run everything from 3/4" K-Mart Tasco scopes (from the 70's) to old Weaver big game scopes and even a Leupold 4-12 on various 22's. Some glass was crystal clear and some made everything darker and a little blurry at really close range. In all instances though, all let me hit my target, and especially on game. Having said that, the first time I had to hit a really tiny target at a fair distance really made me appreciate the fine duplex reticle and shorter distance parallax adjustment of a true .22 scope. In my case, it was a Leupold "Rimfire Special" 4x. I would think the longer tube of the Leupold 2-7 rimfire would look great on your Ruger!
Scopes are for steering bullets and not all are "equal",nor "close". Hint.
Not that your Drooling Fhuqktardation ain't HILARIOUS! Hint.
