If it doesn't have to be a repeater, I would go with a 17 FB over the 17 Rem for extended shooting sessions.
Repeater then a 17 Rem or 17-223.
My newest is a 17-204, but I only use it for predators like coyotes and such.
This post reminds me that I have a brandy new NIB CZ Varmint in 17 Rem that I have to decide what I wanna do with it.
