The only reason I still do not have mine is because I am underwhelmed with the 17 HMR.

p.s. - I was just looking a Cabelas flyer that has boxes of 50 17 HMR ammo for $9.99

Cliff's in Boise has a used Cooper 22-250 - test target is just one tiny little hole. Beautiful rifle in one of the best ever varmint calibers. (Just in case you have $1750 burning a hole in your pocket)


I'm aware that the test target is shot at ~50 yards. Still the target attached to that rifle is exceptional. Chances that this rifle will bughole at 100yards are very good.
