Tasco has come a long way since the Trashco days. For a .22 auto set up for squirrel just about any of the lower end models from Bushnell, Simmons,Tasco,ect... will do.

its a 22 scope so as long as it holds together sitting on the shelf at the store then it'll hold togetther on a .22

Funny you say that, Ruger. I just put 2 BSA scopes on 22's that I have. They are 4X scopes that were affordable. They seem great so far!

Joel, trashco world class plus is a pretty decent scope for the money. i tell you what i bought for one of 22 's was a simmons eight point . i am more impressed with it. stay away from the blazer line of scopes. they have a one year warranty. they are made by simmons but are junk. also the pronghorn line by trashco is junk.

hmmm.. i'll keep looking around... my cuzin has a bushnell sportsman? i think. 3-9X40 but it goes out of wack fast... so im thinking simmons or trashco.. hehehe....and i think i was a X32 cause X40 looks too big on a .22 rifle. plus i dont need something that powerful...

I like my Simmons .22 MAG 3x9 ($70).
Never tried any others, but works quite well.
I must admit that I had one problem with it from the factory where the reticle came loose and couldn't keep a zero, but they fixed or replaced it for no charge. OK by me.

Keep 'em all in the Bull.

hoss i got the same scope on my 22...shot about 500 rounds or more since i mounted it....and also my gun fell of a table it was resting against...fell on a soft case luckily...it fell coz my friend shot hid rifle and didnt move mine and bumped it or sumthin...it was unloaded and bolt was out so it was a safe fall..and i picked it up shoot it...zeroed still!!!...like 20-30 $ scope and its crystal clear and bin through alot...and still fine...
