I’ve got one, but it’s not for sale.😁
You’ll love it if you can find one. Mine’s a CZ 527…super accurate! It’s a fun rifle! Crows and coyotes will be nervous.😁
Good luck in your search.

Leftybolt Yup, feel the same way about my 527 Varmint - the little 17 Hornet is addictive!
Pursuit may be, it seems to me, perfect without possession.

I bought one of the savage model 25’s on Gunbroker. Wasn’t my first choice but the only hornet I could find under $1k. Not a bad rifle, plenty accurate .

If you get a chance buy an extra mag and trigger guard. Dang plastic is pretty flimsy. And don't try 1680, it's hard to find the 2nd and 3rd holes

Remingtonman: Don't forget, in your search/quest, the wonderful Ruger 77/17 Hornet Varmint weight Rifles!
Back when they were new two of my friends bought them and both were very accurate and reliable. And this, I have proven, the round, with carefully placed shots kills Badgers easily!
Let alone their wonderful performance on Ground Squirrels and Prairie Dogs.
I finally found a lightly used Ruger 77/17 Hornet Varmint weight and have used it 3 seasons now. Pleased does not begin to describe how happy I am with it!
It goes without saying how wonderful the Ruger rotary magazines work - nothing on the market compares to these 6 shot Ruger rotary magazines!
Last I heard the folks at Ruger were still offering these Model 77/17 Hornets in a couple of models/variations.
Haven't seen any Crows kill't with the 17 Hornet round but it really makes a black cloud of feathers appear when used on Ravens! Not that it was me doing THAT shooting.
Best of luck in your quest.
