Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires Savage A17 semi auto 17hmr

Any one know anything about it?

The local Scheel's has an entire rack full of them. Given Savage's challenges with the bolt action B-Mag, I'm going to let other folks debug this rifle/cartridge combination.

True dat!

I'm gonna own one soon! what are they going for at Scheel's?

$425 at the Village Pointe Scheel's in Omaha. Scheel's has lots of both rifles and ammo in 17WSM.

I've got one coming! I thought being one of the first 17hmr semi auto factory made not converted to be pretty cool and having a rotary clip great!

A good friend bought one this past Friday at the Buda, TX Cabelas for $399.00. They had the CCI A-17 ammo too. Nice looking rig from 5 minutes of eyeballing it Fri. evening.

We may sight it in this week and have some sort of accuracy report if the weather gets better & he gets a scope mounted. Hope their delayed blowback system proves to be reliable.

I actually hope it comes out in a .22 Magnum.

Should have mine some time this week!

Also ment to say let me know how the accuracy pan's out! I found ammo at the Academy sports Store no limits.

Looks very nice. Simple take-down too. Hope it shoots.

They must have fired the guy that designed that hideous .17 WSM bolt gun.

Mine shoots minute of squeaky to 205 yards.

This past weekend we shot over 200+ richard's ground squirrels with 17 hmr.

Thanks to my A17 I had a 2:1 hit ratio on them versus my buddy.

We used a few other guns (223, 22-250, 243 win) but the majority were taken with the A17.

I felt bad shooting so many more than my friend, who owns the land, that I handed him my A17 and was his gun caddy for over a hour. I would reload the clip, he would continue to shoot, I would reload, he would shoot.

We would have shot more but we took a day off to turkey hunt.

Well the gun arrived! Haven't got a scope on it yet but we shoot after cleaning the bore of oils first round didn't kick out second round kicked out and 3rd round went in but didn't fire kicked in 4th round and it shoot the remainder of the magazine put the 3rd round back in and it shoot! After it got going the gun did fine but shoot dirty I would have thought CCI Shells A17 for this gun would have been clean burning with No misfires! I'm not real impressed with the Ammo at this point!!

Hey just noticed the pictures! Great looking tail feathers!! Nice
