I like the little Weaver and Clearidge 3-9x32 AOs; much less $ than the similar Leupold (I have the 2-7 fixed Leupy on a 9422M and it's perfect).
As stated above, the 4-14x Burris Timberline -...

You're correct in being dubious. The main reason I bought an early .17 HH (Savage) was because I thought it should have been quieter than a .22 Hornet. To my (protected) ears it wasn't; in fact the...

The older Ruger 77 Hornets were cursed with a 2-piece bolt design that (allegedly) caused their accuracy problems. Not sure if the newer ones are still that way.

James Calhoon re-barreled 77/22s for his .19 Hornets. Might be wrong, but I think he only sells complete rifles based on the C-Z 527 platform now.
