[QUOTE="woodnut, post: 1588290, member: 17593"] Glad to see some 17 WSM shooters here! I hope it catches on better as all of you know it's a super rimfire round. As for ammo, my custom stocked (and tricked out trigger)Ruger loves the Federal American Eagle in the 20 gr. I have to agree with most, there's only one maker who does it for all. If you look at the bullets and packaging, they are identical. I have killed several groundhogs here in Va. , but all at fairly close range. Only one took a second shot, a very big one I hit a killing blow but I didn't want it to suffer nor get back under the barn! However, it shines in a prairie dog town! I take 5 or 6 rifles , but this is my most fun rifle. I have taken only one at what I consider long range, 300 yds. Going this June and hope to whack more at distance, but will whack a lot with it under that! I just wish I could get a better magazine for the Ruger with more rounds.o_O [/QUOTE]
