Nikon P-Tactical Rimfire 2-7x

[Mathieu18]

Thinking about one of these for my 10/22, LGS has some NOS I think for $180ish. I know Nikon discontinued them but I know they made good glass. Is there anything more current I should be looking at instead?

 

[DrScaryGuy]

i'd prob go with vortex at this point. they should still have lifetime warranties

Ahhh, I forgot about that… remember reading about it, then I think a not so hot review and moved on… the ACSS reticle was interesting IMO… is your 10/22 a takedown or fixed? The length is nice.

It’s a fixed, with a fluted Tac Sol barrel.

Guess it’s still relevant, how far in front of the upper receiver does it stick out? Just trying not to greatly increase the overall length when collapsed…

Also, how’s fixed 6x? Thanks for the reminder of this sight.

Current ain’t always any better. I have a discontinued Nikon 3-9x40 Prostaff Rimfire EFR (AO for parallax adjustment) on a CZ 455 Squirrel rifle that is hard to beat. At 25 to 50 yards its head shots on the damn pecan raiders. I think I paid $150 or so for it and it has been worth every dime and more.

It’s not too far and you could prob set it back even further. The 6X isn’t bad, I can hit 8in plates with it a 200 easy.

Here’s a pic, you can kind of see where it sets on the receiver

I have one of those on a Savage MkII and like it also. I'd like to find something a little smaller in maybe a 4X for a charger I picked up recently.

A Nikon scope glass is better than most of sub $300 brands.

I have one on a 10/22 with a Kidd barrel. It's a tackdriver.

Which one?!?

Thanks, good to hear, espespially on a Kidd barrel.

^this

the Nikon will be superior to any similarly priced Chinese vortex or primary arms optics. Sorry but the low end vortex optics are absolute garbage.

if you’re planning to shoot the .22 long range (eg > 150 yards) and want to be able to dial elevation I’d suggest considering an SWFA SS 6x42 or 10x42. I use these for long range 22 and they have spot-on turret tracking, excellent Japanese glass, adjustable parallax for $300. SWFA usually runs a 10% 4th of July sale if can wait a week. at this point Ive accumulated 5 or 6 of the SWFA SS optics and am extremely impressed.

I've considered this for one of my lever actions. Still haven't settled on a rimfire scope for it. Ideally wanted the Leupold FX 4x. Currently just using a mounted peep.

If you get discounts on Vortex, the Diamondback 2-7x35 is about $200. I'd have a hard time paying $180 for the Prostaff when it was just over $100 a few years back and now discontinued. Nikon says they'll honor warrantee but who knows how long that will last
