[QUOTE="429421Cowboy, post: 747717, member: 54332"] Had talked to some of the guys over on Cast Boolits about it, and actually wish they would have went with something more along the lines of a .25 Super Mag to give a better choice to people restricted to rimfires for varmits up to coyote size. If i buy a .17 it'll be a Hornet that i can reload so i know i'll always have ammo for. It's a pretty gutsy move for Winchester since the round will take a totally new bolt and mag as well, at least the HMR only needed a proven .22 mag gun with a new barrel to be makin' bacon, this will take a little more to work out. I'll be interested to see what ammo costs and how far it goes. [/QUOTE]
