[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 606314, member: 39764"] I agree with JE, they are very accurate and the Hornady factory 17's are great cartridges. I have an earlier Savage in 17HMR and it's a fun gun especially on woodchucks.... My only drawback is it's rimfire so no handloads and don't skimp on an optic. They are very, very capable firearms, flat shooting with no recoil. It's like shooting a pellet gun with balls.:D You might consider a Mach II chambering. A bit cheaper in the ammo department and if you want a real tack driver, Volquartsen Precision builds some fantastic long guns....for a price. I'm a big fan of Volquartsen. All my match pistols have Volks parts inside and some have their barrels. You'll be pleasantly suprised. [/QUOTE]
