Looking to put a red dot on my 10/22. Just for plinking so no need for something fancy/high end. My 10/22 came with a weaver scope rail to install. Seems like a lot of red dots are picatinny, like the Browning Buck Mark I was eyeing.

Looking for your recommendations, and if I should go with a weaver sight or if using a picatinny adapter would be better.

Just get a cheapo chinese one off of amazon or aliexpress then, since 22 recoil wont matter much. Or wait until the sig sauer romeo is 180$ again at cabelas or somewhere, if you dont want cheap chinese stuff
