WTS - .17 HMR Savage 93R17 - FVSS - Simmons ATV 4.5x14x40AO

Well guys, I think it is time to sell this gun. It is in immaculate condition. I have added swivel studs to it so I could carry it easier and to put a bipod on it. It is the synthetic stock, heavy stainless barrell. The trigger is shimmed, and now breaks around 3.5lbs with no travel.......just like glass. For a free trigger job, it is the best shooting rifle I have ever owned w/o custom work. I have killed a LOT of woodchucks with this thing, all the way out to 200 yards or so. The only reason I am selling is because it was initially bought to be a dual purpose rifle for woodchucks, and squirrel hunting. Well, I am starting to have a severe problem with coyotes on the properties I hunt, so I need something to hunt the yotes with and the .17hmr just doesn't cut it there for consistent bang/flops. I am selling this to get a .22-250 (stevens 200 ) calling gun for yotes, and it will also be used dual purpose for woodchucks. I can't justify keeping this .17hmr as a squirrel gun because it pretty much rips them in half every time, so I think this summer I will try to buy and build a 10/22.

I will add pics tonight, but this gun is 100%, and shoots AWESOME, likr .25 moa awesome if you do your part. I would like to sell it with the scope, however don't have to. It has about 150 rounds through it, and I will include a .17 caliber coated cleaning rod and brush as well.

Without the scope, I would like to get $200 shipped, with the scope I would like $275 shipped.

Thanks!!

I also would consider trades for a coyote calling rifle, preferable in .223, .22-250, .204, etc. Please feel free to make offers on trades.

Once again, I am still looking for $$$ or trades on a coyote rifle, I would even consider up to a .243. The scope is mounted on Burris Zee rings. A lot of people have asked about this scope, because it is not a readily available scope that can be looked up and researched. It is not sold through retail stores anymore, however if some research is done on forums like www.rimfirecentral.com, is HIGHLY regarded as the best low dollar/medium power scope out there. They cost about $100 new when I bought this scope. I would keep this scope, however I really want a Mueller 4-16x50 with an illuminated reticle for hunting yotes at night with on the gun that replaces this one.

Thanks for looking guys! Feel free to PM me with any questions or offers. Before anyone asks, the bipod is not included in the sale.
