Default Scope for Savage .17 HMR

I just recently purchased a Savage .17 HMR. I was wondering if there were any recommendations for a scope. It would be used primarily at the range, but I would also like to go hunting with it. I wouldn't want to spend over 100 bucks. Thanks.

You might want to check out one of the BSA Sweet 17 scopes. Pretty decent scope with BDC for the money.

Talking Re: Scope for Savage .17 HMR

I have a 22mag and a .17 HMR CZ and have found that if you want
and inexpesive scope go to the tasco scopes at Cabelas or a gun shop
the scope is around $40.00 and 22 rings standard you can get for
$10.00. You do not need standard 2 screw to hold the scope
type rings. They are far more expensive and unnessary.
hope this helps.
