Help On A Low Light Hunting Scope For 17Hmr. Swarovski Z4I?


Recommended Posts


I use a Nikko stirling 6-24x50 and in low light it works well, I looked at a Zeiss and Swaro did like them but as I was going to use an add on NV I went for the Nikko as the cheaper glass supposedly works better with add on NV and I am not disappointed as it is a good scope in any light.

Spend what you like but not many need to push the boat out that far for rimfires.

 

I have never missed or refused a shot because of the scope.

 

The most expensive here lists about £300, the rest around £150 or less.

If your going to spend money on quality optics, why not get a Hawke Sidewinder scope or MTC, etc, then a digital add on like a Ward 700. Best of both worlds, then you can use the add on to see at dusk clear as a bell without any torch right until night fall, then just add an IR torch and your good for night shooting upto 16x mag if needed.

I have a S/H Swarovski 6x42 on my HMR. I don't like mucking about with mag or parallax when shooting off sticks and find this is fine for the HMR ranges I shoot out to for rabbits, plus nice simple duplex type ret. Obviously a good steel body able to take a knock and not expensive S/H. I paid a £250 for this.

As above i would not waste my money overscoping a rimfire, the point of these top end scopes is eeking out every minute of available light for deer etc No need when you can use NV or a lamp with a rimmy, i had a Burris Fullfield 11 scope on my 308 before the Swaro, they are a cracking buy for a couple of hundred quid
