THR,
I need some information and advice on finding the best scope for a 17HMR in the $150.00 range.
I'm fairly experienced with my Leupold VXIII scopes that I have on my Remington 700PSS in .308 and Ruger 77 in .308. But I still have a lot to learn.
After looking for a rimfire target rifle, I found a nice Savage bolt action in 17HMR, Accutrigger, and heavy barrel. I'm interested in using this gun to refine basic skills and for low(er) cost fun at the 50-100 yard range on a more regular basis than I do with the .308s at 200-500 yds.
With the above in mind, what is the best scope to match the 17hmr that is in the $150.00 range? Also, if you could recommend mounts, I would appreciate that input as well.
Thank you for your time.
