Overview
A 4-12x40 illuminated riflescope built for .17 HMR rimfire rifles, bundled with a set of 1-inch Weaver two-piece medium rings for mounting.
Hawke's Vantage line targets rimfire shooters with red and green illumination across five brightness levels and 1/4 MOA click adjustments on low-profile turrets. Reviewers who mounted it on .17 HMR rifles reported it held zero reliably once sighted in, which matters more on this platform than raw magnification given the caliber's flatter but shorter-range trajectory.
- 4-12x40 magnification range for rimfire use
- Bundled with 1-inch 2-piece Weaver medium rings
- Red and green illuminated reticle, five brightness levels
- Low-profile, no-snag turrets with 1/4 MOA clicks
Who it's for
Rimfire shooters mounting a scope on a .17 HMR rifle who want illumination and don't need magnification beyond 12x. Less suited to shooters wanting a scope rated for centerfire recoil or extreme long range.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Reviewers who mounted this on .17 HMR rifles reported clear glass and accurate bullet drop reference points holding through 250 yards after a 50 yard zero. One buyer found the adjustable objective stuck at first, which loosened after a few shots, and another initially missed that the included rings were packaged separately in the box.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Adjustable objective was stiff on arrival for at least one buyer
- One buyer initially thought rings were missing before finding them packaged separately in the box
Performance notes
Multi-coated optics and the red and green illuminated reticle are aimed at low light shooting, with one reviewer noting the adjustable objective was stiff out of the box but freed up after a few shots and held its adjustments afterward. Another reviewer who sighted in at 50 yards reported the bullet drop points stayed accurate through 250 yards.
