What optic are you using on your AR .22 conversion or complete upper?

Are there any rimfire 1x-4x rifle scopes?

Is parallax an issue using a regular (non rimfire) scope at 25 or 50 yards?

If you look at the stickied 22 thread that I started, you can see I've used quite a variety
of scopes from $20.00 to $500.00. The one thing that makes the biggest difference IMO
is that the scopes with fine cross hairs are more precise. As long as you don't go too
high in magnification at close range, most any scope will work fine. Focus Adjust the
scope for your eyes....

For rimfire, especially in the AR platform, a $20 scope will work as well as a $1k scope.  IIts not like the recoil of the .22lr is going to be knocking your scope out of zero.  

f you are happy with what you see, then there is nothing wrong with it.

Spec does that mean I would be ok with say, burris euro diamond or XTR or a Vortex PST in 1x-4x power at both 25 and 50yds with the .22?
I really want a 1x4 but dont think any rimfire scopes are made in that power.
