Overview
A 3-9x40 rifle scope calibrated specifically for .22LR ammunition, with side parallax adjustment, 1/4 MOA clicks and a multi-grain turret that zero-resets for 36, 38 and 40 grain loads.
BSA built the turret math around three common .22LR bullet weights instead of a generic reticle, which is the reason to pick this over a standard scope. One reviewer flagged the crosshair as thick enough to obscure a couple inches of target past 100 yards, worth knowing before shooting small groups at distance.
- Multi-grain turret with zero reset for 36/38/40gr loads
- Side parallax from 10 yards to infinity
- 1/4 MOA click adjustment
- Waterproof, fogproof and shockproof 1 inch tube
Who it's for
Rimfire shooters mounting a scope on a .22LR plinker or small-game rifle who want turret markings matched to actual bullet weight. Not the pick for anyone stepping up to .22 Magnum or centerfire, where one reviewer was already unsure of its capability.
Pros and cons
- Turret calibrated to actual .22LR bullet weights, not a generic scale
- Clear glass in daylight for the price point
- Includes sunshade and screw-in scope covers
- Reticle crosshair is thick enough to cover part of the target past 100 yards
- One reviewer wasn't confident in it above .22 Magnum
- Glass isn't on par with scopes several times the price

Is this scope calibrated for a specific caliber?
Yes, the turrets are calibrated for .22LR at 36, 38 and 40 grain bullet weights, not a general-purpose MOA scale.

One reviewer mounted it on a .22 WMR rifle and it fit and sighted in fine, though the turret markings are printed for .22LR.
