rimfire scopes, what you using

[Tikkat1x]

just wondered what scopes people have on the rimfire's and why,
on my 22lr and 17 hmr i have the hawke vantage SF 4-16X44,
i have no idea why but thinking of getting a better on for the hmr, maybe something with a bit more magnification,
my mates selling his Nikko sterling C-more 3-30x56 Scope??
thanks.

I have a Hawke SF 30WA Vantage 4-16X50 on my 17HMR. I shoot mainly after dark with a Pard 007 which effectively converts it to a 8-32.

Keep the scope, buy a Pard 007a from Remmy700 on this site and transform your shooting plus you can record everything night and day!

Hawke Airmax SF 30 on my 22lr, Hawke Endurance SF on my 17 WSM. Both with fitting for Pard 007.

Or buy a 008 do the same but not have a crick in your neck from the crazy point the ocular sits at!

I use a Walther 6 x 42 with a MILDOT reticule.

Hmm. I found that with only minor tweaking the 007a is fine on my .17; .222 and 6.5x55 though the latter already had a recoil pad.

It may have changed but when I looked at them - every rifle I saw had the ocular lense 4” further back than it should be for the rifle to be properly shouldered.

The 008 is essentially just a scope although it lacks variable mag options and can be a pain in sunny conditions.

I guess if the 007 was mounted further forwards the scope would be in the wrong place!

Take a look at the Konus pro range of scopes, I have the 3-9x32 pa on my rimfire, excellent scopes for the money indeed.

 

[Erik Hamburger]

• .22Lr s/a: Sightron 'Hunter' 1.75-4 x 32
• .17HMR: Meopta Artemis 2100 (illuminated reticle) 7 x 50

Both doing the job just fine.

Mtc scope works really good with pard 007

 

[tozzybum]

Hawke vantage front ao + pard 007 works ,just works

i have seen the pard before but never even knew what it was, im now looking with great interest
a lot cheaper than the thermal scopes i was looking at a couple of weeks ago

i take it the 008 is the newer version

Vortex Diamondback tactical FFP on my BXR .22lr.

The 008 is a stand alone night vision - the 007 is a scope add on.
