Big stick, How are the 17 wsm uppers, jard/Franklin, compared side by side? I didn't even realize jard made one until this thread, I was really hoping to see an rar of this caliber this year but I'm beginning to think any production rifle besides the bmag and m77 are out the window at this point. Possibly not, but it's not looking good. Crow and pigeon shooting are about the only things I ever break the 17 out for anymore anyway. I usually tote a 22 mag in the woods, shots rarely ever exceed 100 yards, but you don't get the "poof" factor on small critters with a mag that you do with a 17.
