Waiting on my new Rifle

Post by scottc » Wed Feb 01, 2006 8:10 pm

Well I just ordered a Marlin 917VSF. I can't wait for it, now I have to figure what type of glass I am going to put on this bad boy.

I think I am going to take it out soon for a varmit hunt.

But those are not the types of glasses I am looking for. Any help or suggestions would be helpful... Please.

I have found Burris to be the best value to cost ratio of the US made scopes.
Even the compact 3-9 X w/o parralax adjustment had me shooting MOA @ 200 yards (in a Styer SBS .308 with match ammo of course).

Tasco has some adjustable scopes that are prety good, and even less expensive.

Let's face it a .17 HMR is good to 200 Meters, you don't need a Ziess.

I'm thinking of a stainless chimpmunk in .17HMR, loose a tad in accuracy, a tad in velocity, a lot more lost in capacity, but not a bad backpack rifle.

And if they manage to get closer I'll take my master blaster chrome .32 PP out and wax their silly gnagsta' azz. :mrgreen:
