Any .17HMR fans out there besides me?
I picked up this Savage 93R17-BV about 2 years ago, when it was flavor of the day. Since then, I've heard a lot of guys have sold their HMR's as the cost of the ammunition is about equal to cheap .223 centerfire ammo. I've decided to keep mine as I believe the .17HMR fills the niche between .22 rimfires & .22 centerfires.
It's an absolute blast to shoot @ 100 yds. - accurate, consistant, with almost no recoil. And it's death on groundsquirrels & crows.
