My RAR 22 mag has no feeding or extraction issues using CCI, Winchester and Hornady ammo. With Hornady 30 grain V-Max it will group 3/4" @100 yds.

I tried my My RAR 17 HMR--dry run no actual firing-- has no feeding or extraction issues using CCI, Winchester and Hornady ammo. I can not wait to fire it!

Fotis, I love my 22 wmr. The guys at the range think it's funny because I put a Zeiss scope on it, but the rifle is well deserving of good glass. I'm hoping your 17 works out just as well as my 22 magnum has for me. I actually liked mine so much that after I had it for a couple weeks I thought about buying another one because they were on sale for $250.00. Well worth that price if you ask me.. Another plus is Talley makes lightweight rings for it. I opted for them vs. the weaver #12's. I think it is a winning combination on these sweet little rifles:

Any input as far as accuracy goes? They shoot like a mother-fugker. Dave

Going to give it a go today. Let us know if you have feeding issues. Some people have had issues with it..

That's good to know. One of my buddies was wanting to try one out in 17 HMR... Thanks..

Ran a box of 50 through it, no hiccups . Got it for the girlfriend to whack armidillos tearing up her yard. Think I will keep it and get her something else.
