Hi looking at 2 scope for my cz .17 a

Bushnell 6-18x 50mm around €190 and a Nikko Stirling Platinum Nighteater 30mm 4-16x50 LRX Illuminated around €240.

Which would be better or what would be a good scope for around the same money ???

I bought the nighteater 30mm here with sunshade and scope caps for €200 delivered to my door, legally to deliver from the uk you must fill in a form, they pre fill it out for you email it to you, you print it, sign it, and either scan it or take a picture of it and send it back to them.. I had the scope in days.

Fantastic scope for the price and its all you'll ever need on the hmr, its brilliant under the lamp and in low light too.
I went for the mildot version because theres less going on and all the other lines werent needed.
Ill be keeping that scope and wouldn't hesitate using it on a deer stalking rifle.

I have had a few of the Nighteaters when I first started shooting and to be honest I did not like them at all. Friend gave me a look through his Bushnell scope and I could see how much better they were right off.

I have at present 5 Bushnell scopes and Have had several more pass through my hands over the years. All great scopes and never a bother with any of them.

I own 2 of the Banner 6-18x50 now, on my 10/22 and Marlin 1894 lever action for comp. shooting. Both do that job very well.

But it may be a little big, size wise not mag, for your rifle. And it has a 'Multi' type reticle, you may find a mildot ret. better for your shooting.
Personally I like a scope with target turrets on a hunting rifle so that I can range the target, with a range finder, and dial in the required drop.
When I had my .22lr I had the fixed power Bushnell Elite 10x40 on top, with target turrets, and if a long shot presented itself I'd dial in the drop. Could head shoot rabbits out to 130y with it.
