I have a vortex crossfire II 2-7x32 plex reticle brand new in the box that i would sell to you for $150 shipped.  I didn't realize it was a rimfire scope when I bought it a couple months ago.  Let me know if you are interested.

I have bought 2 Vortex Crossfire II 4-12x50 Adjustable Objective riflescopes.  I need the AO focus for my old eyes. It will focus down close if you are shooting closer.  Can't say enough good about them.

I had a non-focus adjustable 3-9 Vortex, but was blurry under 70 yards.

I also have an old Nikon ProStaff with AO, but they are not made anymore.  Very similar.

$150 on Amazon.

For a .22 rimfire the burris droptine 22lr scope works great.   It has a ballistic drop reticle, works great at 100 yards with most 22 ammo.  Off the top of my head I think it has a 50 yard hashmark, 75 yard, 100 yard and maybe 125 yds.   

No regrets getting one for my bolt action 22.

Another vote for the Vortex. Have the 4x16x44 and a 4x16x50 on my 22 and 17 work flawlessly . Another great scope is the Mueller rimfire line . Had a couple on different 10/22s and thy were also a great scope .

Most of guns that have scopes have a vortex scope, except for my suppressed 10/22. I decided it was time to get something different. I got a Leupold rimfire scope and I’m quite happy with it.

Paralax 30 yards - Infinity.  Great rimfire scope.  I would look no further than this.  Particularly for your 17 HMR.  They were a great deal at $349, they are an exceptionally good deal at $199
