I have an Browning SA22. My eyes are too old for the iron sights and I need eithger a red dot or a scope.
I'd prefer a scope, but the tapped barrel mount looks to me like eye relief might be a challenge as the scope will likely be mounted forward over the receiver. The Weaver 4X28 has a 9" eye relief, but not sure that would work well either.
The second challenge is finding a scope that won't impair the sleek profile of the rifle. Hence the reason for red dot as being less preferable.
But the bottom line is I can't shoot the gun if I can't see the sights. If any of you owners have the SA22 with the scope mount on the barrel, please let me know what works for you.
Thanks
