I was on the fence about this also but I went with 17HMR. I think the new B model stock are a little bit better than the old 93 models. I did not want to chance it because flimsy stocks drive me nuts, I went with a Savage 93R17GV. It has their hardwood stock and heavy barrel, didn't need the heavy barrel but that is what it came with. It shoots awesome and feels like a rifle. I think any of the Savage wood stock 22WMR would serve you well.
