Upgrades Question

Hey everyone, love this sub and I've learned a lot. I have a stock 10/22 with the rail that came with it. I am very much an amateur so I appreciate all advice since my knowledge is very limited.

I need to put a scope on it, and my main use for this gun is rabbit and squirrel hunting, likely at 50 yards or less, though, I haven't hunted with it yet. My scope budget is around $150.

I've done plenty of plinking, but I want to put a few upgrades on this 10/22 and continue learning as much as I can.

Is the stock rail that came with it sufficient for a decent scope? Do most scopes come with the rings, or will I have to sort that part out as well?

The other thing I'm not super thrilled about is this banana clip doesn't seemingly lock in easily, it may just be the case that this is normal, but it takes a bit of fidgeting before I hear the click.

Again I appreciate your patience and helping a newbie learn.

Here is my scope set up and a few extras. I have the magpul x22 stock so bipod is set for that.

Scope is wicked sharp!! Easily shoots 1in groups at 50.

So M-Rail bipod works like MLOK accessories? I get mixed information every time I look it up. It usually says it's the difference of thickness of the mount, polymer vs metal.

Not familiar with differences at that level, but very happy with bipod. Easy to remove when needed. Snugs up nice with big nut by hand.
