mad1 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 I have the exact same scope on my 22lr it's perfect for that distance it's also a nice fine clear uncluttered view !! Highly recommended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Should be good enough.Depends on your eyesight if you need a higher mag scope or not. Leupold are good scopes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aister Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Ideal IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimlet Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Here's an idea. Could someone not sort through all the "What scope for an HMR" topics, collate all the sensible replies and post a pinned reference thread at the top of this section?

dadioles Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 I would struggle to shoot a rabbit in the head at 100 yards with a maximum 9x magnification. The .17hmr will group more or less 1 inch at that distance and in my view 16x or even 24x would be more appropriate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
