Rimfire Silhouette Scope Power

[BAD]

I was wondering what everyone uses for scope power for shooting rimfire silhouettes. Also, does anyone have any luck with the ballistic reticles for 22lr?

Thanks

18x works for me, but I barely shoot A level scores. AAA and Masters use 20x, 24x, 30x because they have trained their way to a better hold.

Surprisingly, after my first season of SB silhouette, I now find that 18x feels "steadier" than 10x. When I dial my 18x down to 10x, my scores drop. This is contrary to the commonly held belief that a low magnification scope is easier to hold steady on target.

Highest power you can get that will focus with no parallax at 25 m.

18X , 20X, or 24X, depending on which scope I'm shooting that day....

! used a 6.5-20 VIII with parallax adjustment on top of a Anschutz MS and it all worked well for me even on hot days.
