Default Scope for CZ452 in .22

I have been watching for a left hand CZ452 .22 to come up for sale and was turned onto one by Dean2 (Thanks sir!) that popped up and was lucky enough to be first to reply and scooped it up!

Now I need to find a scope for it. don't plan on doing anything outside the norm with this and just some plinking and grouse etc. I am thinking around a 2-7 power or so should be the sweet spot.

I am wondering what models I should give consideration thinking in terms of trying to hit that sweet spot of quality and price. No need to go nuts here but I also don't want junk.

Any input?

I use Leupolds on my 22s
A VX1 2-7x33 on my 77/22 which I find to be great and no issues with paralax and I have a 2-7x28 Rimfire on my 10/22. This magnification power is perfect for me. Many gophers taken over 100 yards. For plinking and gopher control I think they are ideal and their size matches the rifles. I do prefer the VX1 over the rimfire model.

I have leupold 3-9x40 on my CZs and other .22s. My only issue is the longer set parallax on these scopes.

This is something that I will eventually adjust. But keep parallax in mind if a lot of your shooting is within 50 yards.

The Leupold 3-9x33EFR is an excellent choice.

I have a Leupold Freedom Rimfire 2-7x33 with the moa reticle…it’s sharp and bright, no parallax issues and the reticle has 1” increments at 100 yds at 7 power.

So far this is the one I seem to be gravitating to.

Elk brought up and interesting one but checking some of the specs, it seems like this one has a bit bigger field of vision and thinking that might be not a bad thing. Any thoughts on that Elk?
