i have a savage .17 hmr that is just took a BSA 6-18 x 44AO off of...i'm going to go with more than likely a mueller, maybe a swift but doubt it...my question is...do i go with the mueller APV 4.5-14 x 40AO or the 8.5-25 x 55 tactical AO??? i plan to do informal target shooting up to 200 yards and some small game hunting...i'm wondering if the 8.5-25 will be too much to hunt small game at under 50 yards if i get the chance...also, my wonder is getting the 8.5-25 going to be clear up to the higher mag (ie..will the extra money really be worth it if it gets blurry as i pump up the magnification)

Between these two companies I would go with a Mueller 4-16x50, or if you can spring the extra bucks with the 3-10x44 Tac II.  The extra Magnification of the Eraticator will really not buy you anything at your ranges.  The lower magnification of the Tac II is more than offset by better glass.
