That looks exactly like the one I had built 20 years ago!! Is the safety bent? Talk to me about it.

It doesn't appear to be bent.

I've put 37 fire forming rounds through it, 13 to go. Groups were right around 1" using 20gr Vmax's and 1680. I'm sure that would tighten up pretty easily with little effort. I'll even throw in the brass in the pic. No target pics, have to say I've never took a pic of a group I shot. For it to matter to me I'd have to see 5 5shot groups averaged. You know how it is, guy shoots a screamer and claims he has a .5" rifle, next group not so good, and it's still a .5" rifle!

bump
Who did the barrel work & what is the barrel length? Any dies to go with this 17 Ackley?

No idea who did the conversion. When you remove the barreled action it's stamped Shilen and 17Hornet, no dies as I still shoot this chambering. Barrel specs are in the original post, 25".
