Don't forget though that Leupold will change the parallax to 50 yards on most of their scopes for about $30.

I have a Weaver V-24 on my Cooper with the sun shade on. I think the Cooper can take a big scope and not look out of place. (I used to compete with it at local benchrest matches and never changed it out.) The Leupold RF suggestions are good ones.

If you have a very accurate rimfire, the fun of small targets and tiny groups on paper can make the larger , higher magnification scopes look a lot better.

A 4X Weaver on my Ruger 77/22 was a sleek profile, but I swapped it out 3 or 4 years ago for a Bushnell Banner, Dusk & Dawn 3.5 - 10 x 36mm, AO.

The rimfire leupold's are sized appropriately, unless they have changed in the last couple of years they are the vx-1's that do not have the click adjustments.
For less money (around $130- 140) I like the weaver Rimfires; the 4X and the 2-7X.

Jerry I agree 100%. There's nothing wrong with Leupold rimfire scopes like their 4x28, but they're almost twice as expensive as a Weaver 4x28. Both have an excellent reputation, but you can save money going with the Weaver and spend it on something else.
