It really depends MB, basically on your Template. If you are a MCB, and a MSM, your CA is already at 205. Since they recently caped this at 125, your +17 tape will not make a difference... at all. However, one you drop MSM, you end up with about 105 CA. SEA's max out on +25 to anything anyways, and since you only need 20 extra Ca to max out, this is a very nice tape, leaving you looking for only a +3 tape. So basically, it is a VERY nice tape either way, but it may not be useful. If however, you are not stacking for CA, and only have MCB, this is truly excellent for use. I am guessing it is an armor tape, and if it is I would suggest putting it in your pvp suit (Stun damage resistance) Preferably in a lesser-hit piece, (For example, gloves) to max out its longevity. But all in all, its goodness isn’t a discussion, its usefulness to you is.

I would value the +9 Rifle Accuracy While Moving tape at about double or even triple this +17 Counterattack tape. Just look at the % gains each of these give to their respective skill mod.....

I guess if they were +2 or higher rifle tapes then I stand by my statement. At least I would value the carbineer while moving that much more than Counterattack 
But don't get me wrong, if push came to shove, I would have made the deal too to get that +17

sorry, but that's untrue. all mods work seperately of the cap. and food works seperately of them even.
w/ +105, you have an EFFECTIVE potential of +105/+130 after enhancements (attachments, clothes, weapon mods, etc)
w/ carb/sword's +205...you have an EFFECTIVE potential of +125/+150.
