I went to a gun-shop that was having a sale today. They had the Savage black-stock/blue barrel 17HMR for $154. They also had the Savage stainless with a beautiful stock and bull barrel for $259. I was going to get the latter, until the guy told me that he can' t keep shells in for them, and neither can anybody else.

I called a couple other places, and was pretty much laughed at when I asked for 17 shells.

I' m going to get one if they can start producing them at a little better rate.
