Default RE: Why does a .17 cost more than a .22?

ORIGINAL: bigwilly11189

I dont think the .17 are actually .177 i think they are actually smaller than that b/c pellet guns are .177 and you can't use their cleaning kits in a .17 rifle. I know my .17HMR is much more accurate than my .22lr and has a further reach. I purchased it for varmints and also for practice as its cheaper to practice with than my larger rifles.
Your right, i should have typed .172"... I'm going to edit it in...

Thanks for catching that...
