    I think you can only apply for a substitution of firearm of the same type/caliber.
    Example:22lr for another .22lr but not a .22lr for a different caliber (.17hmr) open to correction here??

    As for the scope i used to have a CZ .22wmr with a Simmons 3.5x10x40 and it worked well on it, depends how much money you want to spend as well.Personally i think you should spend as much as you can afford on a scope as it will stand to you and you can always hold on to it if changing rifle again.

    You can substitute same type of firearm. For example rifle for rifle.
    I have substituted my .22lr for a .223.
    There will be no problem going .22lr to .17hmr.

    +1 on spending as much as you can on a scope. Many scopes out there that would suit.
    Hawke, Bushnell, Simmons, etc
