I'm unfamiliar with it. What's this scope designed for and would it work on something like a 10/22?

State of the art performance combined with a compact form factor make the STS-081 Mini Red Dot Sight one of the hottest optics available. A versatile and lightweight solution for handgun, rifle and shotgun, the STS-081’s advanced design and robust construction ensures optimum performance in the most extreme conditions. The STS-081 features a parallax free 1X red dot with a 4 MOA reticle, coated glass lenses, a high strength extruded aluminum body with anodize coating, and mounts on M1913 / Weaver accessory rails. 11 daylight settings provide a visible aiming solution through a full range of light conditions. Power is supplied by one 3V CR2032 Lithium Battery, providing an average of 8000 hours of operation. With an overall length of under 2.5” and a weight of only 3.0 oz, you won’t even know it’s there until you need to use it. The STS-081 Mini Red Dot Sight is an innovative sighting solution that will enhance the abilities of any shooter.

Don't have one but I know they are made in China. I have read that they perform decently.

For less money, you should look at these Leatherwood sights. They are recommended by Bushmaster (for whatever thats worth), and are probably higher quality than the Sig sight (I've read that everyone who gets a Sig sight on a Sig 556 says they are crappy. Of course, if they are comparing it to say an Aimpoint; then this sight would be considered crappy too. ).
