Wanted: .22 rifle scope for silhouette shooting.

Blktail... I'm assuming you're shooting maximum about 110yards. How much power can you hold steady at that distance? Small targets would require a samll cross hair as not to eliminate the target view. Some people can go straight to a 16 power, others opt to start with a variable to see how their skill develop. If I were getting into entry level, I think I'd be trying a variable up to around 16 power. A lot of companies make 4-12 that might be a good option. I know some have started with BSA and Sightron with no problems. Some lower end optics have too thick of crosshair for this application. Adjustablility is a concern but you also need quality ammo that shoots where you aim in order to determine if the clicks on the scope are proper. If you have some club members already shooting maybe you could look at what they have and get a better feel for your preference. I am not a silhoutte shooter and better advice may be just around the corner.
