New from NE PA

Post by Devious6 » Thu Sep 26, 2019 8:02 pm

New owner checking in - won a Golden Boy 22lr in a raffle today at a fundraiser for one of the programs at the college I work for. Actually, I won a Big Boy at the same event several years ago but opted to sell it. I'm going to keep the golden Boy here for our grandkids to shoot. I'm looking to shooting it myself, too.

I am thinking of scoping it - any suggestions on scopes/rings?

Welcome to the forum from CT. Several members scope their rifles. I'm sure you'll get some advice in short order.

Welcome from Western North Carolina!
I would shoot it plenty first and see how good your eyes are with iron sites. Then make your decision on an optic if needed.
Glad you joined us!

Thanks for the welcome and suggestions! As I get further into my 60s I'm having a harder time looking down those iron sights. I typically use a red dot for my ARs and have a Remington pump .22 without a scope so I thought I'd scope this one for target shooting.
