Hi guys...long time since posting.

Looking for a good scope for a CZ varmint rifle with 20 in bbl in 17 HMR.

Just finished scoping a Weatherby Mk V in 270 WBY Magnum and sighted in yesterday.

I guess I am looking to go from a fairly powerful rifle to a very low powered rifle..just for fun.

But I need a good scope for the 17 HMR. 

Now that I think about it, I do have a spare Weaver Classic V7 which is 2-7 and a nice scope.  Maybe I already have the scope....

Appreciate any ideas.

Shoot..I ordered up a Mueller scope from SWFA.  I read good stuff about this low priced scope.

Will report when I get the rig set up.
