Picked up a Ruger in wallyworld for this same purpose and threw on an old Nikon scope I had in the safe, damn thing shoots way better than expected and .22 pellets are some pretty bad mojo for the tree rats at reasonable distances.
Way too much scope for the gun but WTF
If you bought a regular spring/piston type air rifle, it will destroy your scope. I'm assuming the Nikon you put on it isn't an air rifle scope when I say that.
But, to the OP, I was also going to mention Ruger for your price range. I have one of the Ruger Blackhawks in .177. I've killed dozens of yard squirrels with it. I think they make a .22 version.

Tomcat rat traps screwed to a fence or trees. Piece of pecan for bait. A friend told me this

No it is not an air rifle scope but as it formally lived on a .300 WHBY I can not see how the air rifle is going to harm it.
Perhaps I am wrong but someone is going to have to explain that one to me.
