Thank you for the responses. I appreciate it as it is difficult to look at all the potential scopes and reticles. I will get at least one before June and may have to save for second over the winter. I have checked out a Leupold 6x20 VX III with the varmint reticle. Very nice in a store, but hard to tell how it will look in action. Can't remember if it was a 50 or 40, but about the same price point as a Vortex or Sightron in the same variable power would be nice on the 22. The IOR with the MP-8 reticles is impressive. Again thank you for the responses.
