RE: Scope for my new Savage 93R17-FVSS .17 hmr??
Rick, I have the exact same rifle. I had the same idea on getting a silver scope to complement the overall look of the rifle. I started with the Bushnell Trophy silver 3-9x 40mm and it looked good on the rifle, but I didn’t find that it had enough magnification for the 17HMR.
I was looking for another silver scope and couldn’t really find anything so I decided to go with the Bushnell Trophy matte black 6-18 x 40mm AO. This scope is very nice and and I’m happy with my choice although I haven’t taken it to the range yet. I had also considered the Simmons varmint 6.5-20 x 40, Bushnell Legend 5-15 x40mm or Bushnell Banner Dusk and Dawn 6-24 x 40AO. I ended up with the Trophy because I was very impressed with the optics on how clear and bright it was on my Trophy silver 3-9 that I had originally purchased. Good luck...
