I am waiting for my Taurus Tracker 17 HMR to arrive I need a scope for it. I will be using this mostly for plinking and targets out to 100 yrd. But an occasional squirl or Coyotte could meet up with it.
I need recommendations for power, fixed or variable, and finally make and model.
Thanks.

for a little more than the 25-50 yd plinker, I like the leo 4x. Revolvers aren't as accurate as something like a T/C handgun in the same caliber and higher mags. are not necessary. How far the scope sticks out over the hammer may or may not be a consideration for you, but variables and sometimes the mounting system require it. This 22 hornet is good for clay targets at 200 yds.

Yeah - I can get a better deal retail than $489 - the problem is that no-one has one.
Did you find one? If so would you mind letting me know where? Thanks, George |
