    people buy 17 hmr for 2 things:
    1. Target shooting at 80m-150m, in which case you would want at least 12x at max magnification.
    2. small game shooting at 50m-150m, such as possums, rabbits and unprotected/non-game birds. These are small targets, again, I would say at least 12x is required. Some people make do with 9x but I think it is stretching it for small targets at these distances.

    I personally use 6-18x on my 17hmr.

    So many helpful answers guys. As you'd expect from the many good buggers who frequent this forum.
