OK guys, I'm going to be ordering a 93R17FV (cheap as possible 'cause I'll end up hot rodding it).
My question is about caliber specific scopes. Do they have any advantages over regular non spec. scopes?
I found a Barska for 17 HMR that is kind of interesting but really know nothing about them. I'll be using the Rifle for punching
paper in postal matches at primarily 50 and a 100 yds. The 50yd targets have really small points to shoot at so I'll need a
pretty fine reticle. I'd like at least a 3-9 variable for versatility and not go over $200. This gun is for fun and I don't want to break the
bank which would kill the fun factor. I'm relativly new to rimfire, my last project was a 7mm Rem. mag in an XLR chassis and I'm starting a
6.5 Creedmoor for the wife.

If any of you more experienced rimfire shooters can suggest anything that would meet my needs or lead
me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it.
