I plan to use this scope on my 17 cal hmr or my 22magnum...Do you think it can handle the rimfire?

My .22 cal pellet gun probably has more recoil than your 17 or 22 mag. I have had no issues with it at all.
1038616
Yes no problem. P have a 3-9X56 that I put on multipul pellet rifled and my 30-06 n the pellet rifles have killed scopes because the forward them backward recoil they make so ur 22 mag or 17 HMR should be right on

I have put 200-300 rounds through my Colt .22 rifle with this scope, no issues at all with the scope holding position. The mounts are sturdy and the scope seems very well built. I would have no hesitation to use it with hotter loads/higher calibers.

Yes Sir it can handle it with no problem I like the one i have it has a clear view of you target

I put a rail on first and tightened up the set screw, and drilled a set hole for the screw.

Not sure. I have it mounted on 22 rim fire. Might have to change mounts. Good luck

I have one mounted on a 308 and it handle that like nothing. However I haven't tried it on that caliber so your guess is as good as mine. I would call up leatherwood and ask.

I believe it will work great. I have mine mounted on a rem. 700 varmint .223, it holds zero and the adjustment are spot on. Have fun!

I shoot .22lr 36 grain ammo at mine between 15 and 25 yards out of a Ruger 10/22. It chips the paint, but no noticeable denting. I think a 17hmr will be fine.

It's a great scope for a 270. I mounted mine on a Ruger M77 in 270 caliber. Shoots great!

I have 2 of these. One is on a 444 Marlin and the other is on a 35 Whelen. So I think it should do fine with a 270. I have fired 60-80 rounds through each gun with this scope mounted. I usually fire 10-15 rounds before the shoulder goes numb. So I have been to the range 5-6 times with each gun and I consistently get 1-1.5 MOA groups at a hundred yards. That holds pretty good for my needs.

I put mine on a Stainless Marlin .17 HMR and it works great. You would need a scope ring set that has 1' rings to the clamp on for the 22 barrels. For the money it is a good scope and very clear. I also have one on my stainless muzzleloader for 5 years now.

This scope is a little over kill for a 22. I mounted this scope on a 30 06. It is a large scope.

Should have no problem holdind 17 HMR rounds. I do believe the base is the same diameter as 22 mags.

Mounted mine on MP 15/ 22 does a good . Don't think I would put on AR if shooting at critters out past 150 yards. Hope this helps other then that I really like the scope.

Yes. I've used it with both .22 and .17 on my dual caliber Beeman RS2 air rifle. Don't use any adapters for the .17 caliber. This gets it close enough to use a bench rest and trial shots for final scope adjustment. The shot pattern will depend on the type of pellets used. It is handy when switching calibers.

Yes, holds 17 HMR perfectly. In fact because of the bottlenecked shape, they pop out even easier than the 22 LR, or 22 Mag. As the 22 Mag is the widest, it stretches the clips a bit so the 22 LR and 17 HMR are not quite as tight after holding a 22 Mag. Great product.

I believe it would handle it, but would be careful about the shot bouncing back. I have used .22LR and 9mm on it with no issues. I put it out at 10-20 yards and use whatever is handy. Usually one roll per shot with .22 and can roll pretty good with a clean hit with the 9mm.

.22 rimfire should be OK out to 100 yards. Difficulty finding that ammunition (.22 rimfire) might sway your decision to a small caliber center fire. Again, I am NOT an expert.

I have it on my 10/22 and it works well. Keep in mind it's a cheap scope, and remember to turn off the illumination.

Yes, but it is better suited to a centerfire rifle. Bushnell offers other economical scopes designed for rimfire use.
