Like the others I wouldn't expect great glass from a $70.00 scope. But............... after saying that we shoot a lot of 22lr at targets that vary from 25 to 100 yards. So I was looking for something that had target knobs that I could change sight in at different ranges when the distances changed during a match. I didn't want to break the bank on a 22lr scope and bought a BSA sweet 22 scope. Yeah is it not as clear as most quality scope. Did it work? Perfectly. I mean if all I did was shoot 22lr competition on a national level it would be lacking compared to some equipment but I can tell you for hunting or novice competition a low end scope will be just fine. Unless you shoot on a national level or got money running out your ears who wants to spend hundreds of dollars on a 22lr scope. Your pretty limited after 100yds anyway. There's all kinds of scopes out there that would suffice for a 22lr.
