Here’s my review if this rimfire scope. It’s a Nikon ProStaff 3-9×40 scope with a 150 BDC. It has a 50 yd parallax so that makes it perfect for the 22lr round. This scope has held zero once I sighted it in. Positive detents on zero-reset turrets. I forgot to mention it has also has a quick focus eyepiece.

Good video. Nice scope.
3 by 9? WTF?
Is it in 1st focal plane
Hahaha I have a marlin 60 with the exact same scope and mount so it won't slide back. Lol. Exact same scope and rings.
How is the package of Marlin 795, the Nikon and the UTG Mount working out for you? I just bought the same rifle and mount, now I'm thinking of getting this scope for it. Have you encountered any problems with the setup so far?
I have this scope on my S&W 15-22 and love it. Nikon has discontinued this model (6725), and they are very hard to find at what was the retail price of $149.00. The new version has an auto focus eyepiece which I do not like. Not sure why Nikon made this change but don't think it was a good one…
If any of you guys are wondering about scope mounts I just got a Barska dovetail to weaver adapter for my Marlin 795 for $17 from Amazon. It mounted super easy, has 4 lock screws and is see through for iron sight back up. Only problem ive seen is the rear iron sight shim doesn't quite get high enough. I've been wanting to upgrade to fiber optic sights anyway so hopefully there are replacement iron sites out there that will solve this small problem.
3 by 9 lol
Good video. You forgot to mention the Ocular adjustment; and it looks like you have not focused yours (it is screwed right in). Strangely, after my criticisms, you have convinced me to buy one for my Anschutz Sporter! LOL
I just bought this scope from cabelas for $75 bucks, including a box of Winchester .22's(333 rounds). I used a $25 off coupon, sweet deal.
Thank You…!!!
I have this scope on my M&P15-22, I'm new to them though, I have a question, if I zero it and don't want to loose that zero, if I make an adjustment someday, do I pick up the turrets and put them on zero? so that that will always keep my zero? Thanks!
Nice review.
My new $150 Nikon FOGGED terribly on very first cold hunt and it was inside the tube. Frosted my nuts I tell you never again
this is way way late but can it withstand .308 recoil
What kind of stand do you have your Marlin on?
I see u have it on a marlin 60.
Good choice. Its on my wishlist.
Have a Savage mark ii
I just bought a normal ProStaff 3-9×40 Nikoplex (I hate the BDC reticle) for my 10/22. I was wondering what height of rings you needed for your scope?
nice job thanks for the great info.
I have this scope, I love it but I can't find a round that works with the bdc as well as I'd like it to.
I have one. Clarity and quality is up there with the high end scopes.
How's the optical clarity at 100 yards?
Covers are metal
are turret covers plastic?
Thanks, I've got a Marlin 795 and put a Barska 3-9×40, good for the money and much better than the Simmon's the shop had in it. In time I'll upgrade that to either a Leupold or a Vortex, but that Nikon for the price is intriguing.
well, it's def not a Leupold but @ $100, it's a nice scope.
How is its contrast? Compared to upper class brands like the Leupold??
I'm sure you'll be happy with the scope. Yeah, good luck finding any firearm these days.
Just ordered this scope and the Leapers 1 peace accushot mount. I'm going to put it on my marlin 60, but will oce it to a ruger 10/22 takedown if I can ever find one.
how to take the caps off? you sound like a life noobie. amirite?
Wife got me one of these for Christmas. Can't wait to try it out. And thanks for demonstrating how to take the caps off. I'm a scope noobie!
Thank you, I am going to look more into that.
i used a medium height and it was just above the barrel.
There's a link in the description.
can i put this scope on my marlin model 60 sb with low rings????
It seems, those ProStaff scopes are really good, but I ordered the smaller one (2-7 x 32) model for my .22lr rifle because i see an advantage in the lower magnification – that brings a bigger field of view – and 7x maximum is way enough for shooting this caliber.
(hope, it will arrive soon)
But I love Your massive scope brackets!
Hey a marlin. I just picked up a 795 I week ago. Great squirrel gun.
yes, it did come with the bikini type covers
This almost is as good as the Redfield Revenge series 😛 It's pretty much all the same but I got mine in 4-12×42 (I think 42mm, could be 40mm) other than that this is probably more economical.
A reasonably good rimfire scope. One thing to clarify, if I may: it doesn't say one click is 1/4 MOA at 50 yd. What it means is that one click is one quarter inch at 50 yd. We know this because it also says one click = 7mm at 50m (or about 9/32 inch at 54.7yd). And also because one MOA is roughly one inch at 100 yd, which would work out to about half an inch at 50yd. So, in terms of MOA, each click on your turret would be close enough to 1/2 MOA.
it's a medium mount. link is in the description.
That zero readjustment feature is sick! I didn't even know scopes had that! lol
it's a Marlin 795
what 22 is that a ruger tactical
It's a one piece mount from amazon. Link is in description.
Not 50 yards but 50 meters !
It says 50m on your scope !
it's a stock marlin 795 handle. thanks for watching.
what charging handle is that, it looks nice and not overly flashy like alot of the extended handles
Man, I could you the fifty bucks now. Oh well, great scope at a great price now. Thanks for sharing the info.
$50 mail-in rebate on this scope, along with the 4×32
