Lecky 1 Posted February 4, 2014 Hi guys, I just recently purchased a m&p15-22 and now I'm looking to put around $100-150 optics on it can I please get some suggestion, not sure whether a scope or red dot. Could I get both suggestions? Thanks all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jrfly3006 42 Posted February 4, 2014 If you're looking for a red dot check out the Bushnell TR-25...I have one on my AR and its been rock solid for over a year..should be even better on a .22 I got mine at Cabelas for under $80.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rtquig 45 Posted February 4, 2014 If you're looking for a red dot check out the Bushnell TR-25...I have one on my AR and its been rock solid for over a year..should be even better on a .22 I got mine at Cabelas for under $80.. I agree, I bought mine last year when Bushnell was giving a 25% rebate and ordered it from Cabelas also. I put it on the AR-15. Worth the investment. You may also consider the P223 from Nikon. At the right time you can get it with mounting for around $150. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scorched 0 Posted February 4, 2014 I have a primary arms micro dot clone on my ar-22. I like the red dot a lot, and I love the low profile and light weight. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueLineFish 615 Posted February 4, 2014 For the money look nowhere else than the trs-25 from bushnell or the primary arms micro. If you are looking for more of a scope type try a vortex strikefire with a magnifier Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Another vote for the Bushnell TR-25. I have that on my 15-22 as well. lt's quite affordable, and all the optic you need. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSD1026 48 Posted February 4, 2014 i have a nikon prostaff rimfire 3-9x scope on mine.. http://www.midwayusa.com/product/184657/nikon-prostaff-rimfire-rifle-scope-3-9x-40mm-bdc-150-reticle-matte nice scope, glass is excellent for the price... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
njplinker 8 Posted February 4, 2014 For a red dot, I agree the bushnell is decent. I wasnt very accurate with it out past 50 yards (probably just me) and also went with a Nikon prostaff rimfire. I think I got it when nikon was having a rebate and paid around $100. Well worth it in my opinion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lecky 1 Posted February 5, 2014 Hi guys, thanks for the input, would I need a riser for the bushnell and primary arms, and if so how big? Thanks again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DirtFarmer 1 Posted June 22, 2014 I have both a red dot and a scope on my 15-22. The red dot is a truglo trubrite. Was less then $100 and works for what I use it for. I have that on a 45 degree angle forward on the rail. On the top rail I have a leapers bug buster scope. Both items were inexpensive and work great. I will try to post some pics of the setup.

ECsandstar 28 Posted September 30, 2014 Hi guys, thanks for the input, would I need a riser for the bushnell and primary arms, and if so how big? Thanks again. I had the same question. For flat tops would one go with a riser or no?

Greg 12 Posted October 1, 2014 I have the Bushnell AR Optics Rimfire Reticle Riflescope 2-7x 32mm. It is $122 on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Bushnell-Zone-22-Rimfire-Reticle-Riflescope/dp/B00ABP4KNM It is a very nice scope for the price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
High Exposure 5,664 Posted October 3, 2014 I put my EOTurd on mine. I only use it for training and an occasional .22 competition so I won't care when it shits the bed on me again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
