Barska on a .17HMR

[Lost Hunta]

i need a scope for my .17hmr and all the scopes in my 'inventory' are 4x or 3-9x. At dunhamssports they got the Barska 6-24x42 mil-dot for $69. I wouldn't trust this for anything on a centerfire but i don't see why not on a rimfire(got a $24 4x32 Barska on my .22). Just thought i'd collect everyone's thoughts ideas or opinions/recommendations.

I think that's a good choice.

any reasons to back it up with?

[gitano]

Probably the same ones you have - namely, an inexpensive 'scope is perfectly suitable for a rimfire cartridge, especially one along the lines of a .17HMR. Certainly expensive 'scopes will "see" better, but is the amount of "better" either needed OR commensurate with the added cost? Only you can answer those questions.
