.17 HMR

RE: .17 HMR
Best maker would probably be Cooper. But for a regular guy, like me, probably the CZ. I have a Savage in HMR and it is a great gun. But I replaced the crappy stock trigger with a good one. Mine did not come with the accu trigger. A buddy of mine just bought a Savage with the accu trigger, and he is contemplating a new one as well. I was planning on buying a CZ, but they had this one mis-priced. I got the heavy Stainless BBL with laminated stock for $199 which was supposed to be the price of the blue/walnut model.

I have the Savage and I really like it. But like longrifle, I replaced the heavy factory trigger with a Rife-Basix trigger. This rifle is extremely accurate. I've had it for two years now and have taken 2 turkeys and a bushel of squirrels with it. And now that they are making them with the Accutrigger that would be my choice.

Well there you go A7X. Looks like the vote is in. You can get the Savage with the Accutrigger for <$200 or pay a bunch more for a rifle that isn't going to shoot any better!!
