$59 retail is a heck of a price, as the current common wholesale price is $6.88 per box of 50! The CCI and Hornady brand 17HM2 has never shot as well for me as the Eley and Remington brands. My 17HM2s are Marlin (x3) and Savage (x3) with factory barrels, a Remington 581, a couple of Ruger 10/22s, and a Savage with reworked Green Mountain barrels, and a 10/22 with a lined factory barrel.
