duff, member, from UT, United States, asked on August 03, 2018

will scope and kit #170704 fit my savage B mag target 17WSM

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Ethan C., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on January 15, 2019

The scope would work well, but not the mount in the kit. That mount is meant for AR-pattern rifles. You'd be better off with a picatinny rail and separate rings for your setup.
