What cal rifle are you gonna use it on ?
Whats your budget
Need more info, what do mean cost effective?
One of my Nightforce scopes has got me 202 deer in the last 4 years. 202 x 20kg average = 4,040kg of boned out meat , times that by $25kg if I bought it at the supermarket = $100k. So it’s easy to justify the cost to the mrs. But it all depends on what you’re shooting and actual budget.
Intend to use on Savage B17
What I want is that the price is not too expensive, and the quality is better.
I think this post in the introductions thread probably summed it up best......
Good luck with your enthusiastic rifle scope !! [emoji106]Quote:

Hunt Enthusiasm, I have looked at the range of 4x32 scopes available, and don't really see one that stands out as being good quality and good value. It may be there, but I can't see it.
You might find it helpful to look at 3-9x40 scopes, as there are more choices.
It really comes down to how much money you want to spend I guess.
Thank you for your answer
nikko stirling
I was tempted to post the same thing.Quote:

Nikon Prostaff are good valve.
Nikko Stirling are a fairly good scope for an entry level option. As mentioned- more options in the 3-9x40 but if you really want a fixed power they have their uses. Also look at a 4x40 or 6x40 as an option. There are various choices.
It depends more on what you are using it for? Your use and requirement will enable better advice.
A cheap scope can do some jobs well but may not handle what you may want to do- replacing them is not economical. Buying an expensive scope when a cheaper one will do the same job is also not economical.
buying a hilman hunter to drive on forest tracks will kill it quickly, but while a new hilux will do this better, leaving the car parked outside work on night shift in town in a small car parking space, I would suggest the hilman would have the edge...(Which will hurt more to say to the insurance company?: that my $1000 Hilman was stolen on Friday night or my brand new Hilux had $10,000 worth of damage after being stolen on Friday night?)
OK so it's a heavy barreled 17HMR.
So you will be much more effective with a higher powered scope. Fixed 4x are special interest items now as modest zoom scopes are the same price and just as reliable now.
Something in the 3-9× or 4-12× range would realise the potential. Brands like redfield, Leupold and bushnell and weaver will give 80% of the functionality of a nightforce for this application.
Another scope worth looking at would be one that I use on my 22LR, the Hawke vantage 3-12×44 . These are highly though of in the airgun world and enable close focus to 10m plus further out you can correct parallax; they aren't for dialing but with the 17HMR you will be able to hold over pretty reliably and this scope has a half mil hash reticle. They are available from youngs air guns in auckland for $369 and hunting and outdoor supplies in carterton for $368 which are both excellent shops to deal with online. Good brand name mounts are also cost effective and I would look at leupold or sports match but others may have recommendations.
i have a bushnell in the buy/sell forum that would suit at a reasonable cost
I would not recommend 4x scope for 17 hmr.Quote:

2. small game shooting at 50m-150m, such as possums, rabbits and unprotected/non-game birds. These are small targets, again, I would say at least 12x is required. Some people make do with 9x but I think it is stretching it for small targets at these distances.
I personally use 6-18x on my 17hmr.
Maybe its a b17 chinese shitbox air rifle
Ask @rickychen maybe your his brother
So many helpful answers guys. As you'd expect from the many good buggers who frequent this forum.
I do feel that something maybe a.wry here though..
