Aside from my AR, the only other gun I have glass optics on is my Remington 700. The scope I have on it cost 50% more than the gun. If you had anything more than say, .223/5.56, the investment in quality glass is worth it. For a .22, I’d have no problem with putting sub-$150 scopes on. I know others with 700s in a caliber between .308 and .338 Lapua that have $2500-$3500 scopes on them. That’s fucking ridiculous.
