hmr /vs/ mach2
I have a 17hmr. I know a nice older lady that bought a 22 semi off of some kid for 50 bucks. I looked at the gun and determined that it was the most neglected gun I had ever seen. I offered to clean it for her and check it out. I brought her my savage .17hmr with a simmons eight point scope. I gave her a quick lesson or two. She was pegging a pop bottle at 40 yds. in no time. Her gun is now clean and in reasonable condition{ firing condition anyway, it still looks like crap] . Now she wants a gun like mine. The price on that gun has gone up a ton since I bought mine.I don't think she needs that much gun anyway but she wants a .17 . What do you folks think of the Mach 2?I think it might be the answer. She wants the heavy barrel. She also likes the low noise and recoil of my rifle.I don't think she will shoot past 100yds though. I would like some input. thanks
