I have Marlin, Ruger, and Savage rifles in 17HMR. All of them are MOA capable, so I'd recommend picking the make, model, style that has the best ergs and fits your budget. I like the Marlin bolt actions, as they have longer barrels and larger, more man-size, stocks than the comparable Savages. The difference in stock between the Marlin and Savage is particularly noticeable with the synthetic stocks, but not as much with the laminated or solid wood stocks.
