Thread: scope for 17hmr???

Cheers mate

eBay dude ,I just got a sweet deal for a scope with warentee still in the box unused , 400bucks! Well worth a look

I have brand new Nikko Nighteater 4-16x44 here at around the $400 mark and will include shipping if that is of any help. But I would still suggest looking at the Airking 4-12 at around $200 as it is what I would use, myself.

(when I say brand new I mean Brand new. Not that I bought it and didn't use it but that it is still part of the shop stock and is unsold, unused etc)

Or these are in budget and from what I have seen they are pretty good value too

I have a Nikko Stirling Nighteater 3-10 x 40 I think on my .22mag. Can't fault it for the price.

i have a BSA sweet 17 on my hmr. It was cheap, around $220 from memory and it works well for the price so depending on what you want to spend it could be ideal.
It has the dialling turrets set for a hmr and has worked for me out to 270m. I hung a couple old small frying pans on a fence, ranged it via a gps at 270m and dialed the scope and hit it first time. It is a 6-18x40 so heaps of zoom although it does go a bit blurry over 16x and the glass isn't as clear as my vortex but it was half the price and i have no trouble hitting the target. Last week i shot a rosella at around 100m, cut it in half so for hares will be plenty.

Thanks for all the options guys, my savage 17hmr arrived in the mail today and it ahs a heavy barrel, so I would prefer having a scope which isn't too heavy also

An hmr has serious range for a rimfire. You'll want a scope that'll allow you to shoot to 250 at least

I just purchased a nikko 3x9x42 niteeater scope, is that good??? Can you give me some recommendations for scope mounts/rings as I've heard some are better than others?
