I keep thinking that if I buy a 17hmr, it needs a good scope... and for that price i would rather buy and AR... And if i buy and AR i'd want a really nice scope.... So basically i don't buy a $2k set up AR because a $300 17 HMR isn't quite good enough.
That is why i have bought neither... I keep thinking that if I buy a 17hmr, it needs a good scope... and for that price i would rather buy and AR... And if i buy and AR i'd want a really nice scope.... So basically i don't buy a $2k set up AR because a $300 17 HMR isn't quite good enough. pretty goof y thinking huh? I think last time i went rat shooting 17 rounds were 18-19c ea and the .223 ball reloads were 24c ea...
Where rimfires do have a place is restriced areas. In the Kittitas valley it used to be that if you were inside the KRD (Kittitas Resevour dist?) main ditch you had to use only a rim fire rifle... in that case a good argument could be made about 22mag or 17hmr.
