I was legally blind before eye surgery and had to use scopes to shoot. I have both systems and shoot small bore silhouette with both systems. I also have scopes with lit dot reticles (both worlds).
Without a rest, the red dot is a bit easier to use and to get used to. However there is the factor of turning on the site before you shoot with the red dot. Just get a target or fine red dot, the 2 moa size works well for hunting and get a good piece of equipment like a Gilmore or a Leupold Gilmore. Just like a scope, when you start looking at the target and not the dot or cross hair, you start scattering your shots. The single mount made for the Standard Auto by B'Square is a lot sturdier than it looks. I own one, I do not like it, but it does work. Were it me, I would put a Weaver style aluminum base on the gun (drill and tap) and be done with it. With the little 22 just put as much aluminum as you can on it, rings, base, etc. Recoil is not much of a problem but weight can be. I have gotten rid of all of my scopes under 4x. I found that anything under 4 is a waste of scope even on a handgun. A good 4x will get you focus close and at distance. Unless you have in mind using a rest do not worry about the variables or parallax adjustment. Best, Ed

Someone else mentioned checking with Ruger. I checked their web site and the only thing they showed was a Weaver-type base that required drilling and tapping. Call me stuborn, but I'd prefer not to do that other than as a last resort.
