The 17-8 Heritage is the best of the recent 17’s IMO. It has a non rib barrel like the .22 Outdoorsman. They’re bringing big bucks but me, I’d shoot it.

My buddy had a Fox CH (unfired from the 30’s), he finally had it choked properly and used it for quail hunting for 20 years. He got far more enjoyment from shooting it than he ever would have sitting in a gun cabinet.
