I have had a few BSA scopes.  one was a BSA sweet 22.

Cool idea and all, but realize that the drop calculations are based on one barrel length and a specific bullet weight and loading.  Chances off it being dead on are slim. 
They are an ok cheap scope, but one thing I find/found frustrating is that the eye relief on mine was very narrow.  You had to be in just the right spot.  Higher end glass has a bigger relief zone.
