I have this one: Crosman CenterPoint Adventure Class 2-7x32mm riflescope with dual illuminated reticle : Amazon.com : Sports & Outdoors. Highly recommended and probaby the best scope under $100 IMO.

I got a 2-7x32 Redfield revenge for 130 or 140 with a 40$ rebate. Nice clear scope, excellent value, especially after the rebate. The Redfield revolution in the same power is a tad more then 150 and an even better scope

I like the Leatherwood Hi-Lux LER 2-7 scope. Got to have it on a scout rail though.

Paid $149 for a Burris Fullfield II 2-7 x 35 that I really like on my Ranch rifle. It has a "Ballistic Plex" reticle with BDC stickys for most popular calibers including the 55 gr. 223. I use this on my varminting gun.
Paid $289 for the Nikon M-223 Point-blank reticle on my Tactical that I use for 3 gun. It's an awesome piece of glass! (50/200 zero, 1-4 x 20)

I like the Nikon prostaff, a better than average scope for the money. I have one on another rifle that groups consistantly less than 1.5 MOA with my handloads. The point though is that it is a good scope that holds its zero, and has good (but not great) glass. Definately a good fit for a mini.
As a general rule, putting a rimfire scope on a centerfire rifle is a no-no because the manufacturer does not expect such a load to be placed on that scope.
If youre looking for the shorter parallax distance that the rimfire scope will give you, then look at shotgun/turkey scopes because they generally have shorter parallax distances as well.

It looks like you have the mounting pads for rings on your rifle. I would not use a scout mount and long eye scope unless that is the only option available.
I also agree on the rimfire scopes. They are not built hardy enough for the shock and impact these rifles have. Most all of the cheap scopes may stay on there but they will tend to loose their zero.
What I did is convert to a picatinny rail. The Ruger rings would not stay tight on my rifle. It looked like they had just been shot loose too many times. I got my rifle used. I have mid height scope rings for a standard scope and a Bushnell Trophy 3-9x40. You need mid height rings to clear the front fore cover of the barrel.
I think if you are after the little yellow dogs at 200 you would need the 9 power. I do anyway.
