Look at the Vortex Crossfire or Diamondback line. I have a Crossfire on a 10/22 and it does everything I need it to.
Plus they have the best warranty in the industry!

Re: what scope for a .22
I just picked up a Vortex Crossfire 4x14 Mildot Tall Turret Luminated, 156$ NIB from Cameraland on E-bay. The only thing I do not like about it is the little bit of play in the turrets. I like the 4 power for plinking critters. Better scopes out there for more money, but a great 22 scope.

SWFA SS 10x42. I know it focuses down to 50y and has enough internal travel to take it a 22 out to 250y without a canted base.

Re: what scope for a .22
The scopes you are being recommended are good choices. Here's another - spend just a little more lunch money and check out the Hawke Sidewinder lineup. Make sure you get the latest glass with the thin subtension mil dot reticles because with the newer scopes the tactical and regular sidewinder (with side paralax) both now have upgraded glass. I have a couple on pea shooters and they are sweet for the money - mostly because the reticles are really useable. SFP but that's expected at the price range. Can't recommend them on high caliber stick our in tough field conditions, but for this app they will hold up.

Re: what scope for a .22
I was strongly leaning towards a Vortex for my 22 but after reading so many good reviews I ended up with the Mueller APT. I still can't believe how nice it is for the money. They're cheap, but they're much nicer than you'd expect and the features are good (mil dot, useful magnification range, 30mm tube, target turrets, inexpensive sunshade available).
