RE: What 17 to buy? Best Man Advice....
I got a Savage, nothing pretty. It's SS with a bull barrel with a composite stock. I ordered it from Walmart and it was around $200. No accu trigger but it shoots awesome. The only negative thing about the gun is the clip release is too long. Sometimes shooting off a bench you bump it and the clip releases. The clip doesn't fall out it just drops down a little bit. You don't notice until you try to feed the next shell and it jams. This is more of an operator problem than a gun problem. I don't think you can beat this gun for the money.
