Got it from my local gun shop. Is it really that bad? I was going budget friendly for sure

Honestly I have an amazon red dot on my ruger and she is going on 3yrs no problems. Sighted in at 25yrds on a pop can and she is a tack driver at that distance

It's just a very very cheap red dot, it'll probably work on the .22 but they're known to fail in most ways haha. You'll want to upgrade in the near future, but theres a huge range when it comes to red dot prices so you're in luck.

Ive really enjoyed the Vortex crossfire 2 green dot that i have on my tm22. I'd reccomend that one down the road. Got it on sale like 80 bucks off and I've got 0 complaints.

Get a cheap vortex and forget, the rf224 is at best a 2 moa rifle so you really just need something that’s reliable and stays zerod. Vortex also has excellent customer service and warranty.
