Does anybody have a rifle chambered in this, or ever shot one? If so what are your thoughts on it?

I b bought one this summer, but I've only had a chance to shoot it at the range to zero a scope. 20 gr bullet at 3000 FPS ought to be good for little critters.

I agree. I had forgotten about them, but saw one this morning and it peaked my curiosity. What rifle do you have?

Ive messed with one some..it was an early savage bmag..beware the early models..they had chamber pressure issues and busted a buncha bolts...supposed to be fixed now tho..i think they still have an open recall on some of those guns. They are a bad little round tho that will dust coyotes on the cheap. I have my regular savage 93r17 which i bought instead of a bmag. I wanted that wsm but settled for the hmr and i love that gun..ive killed all kinds of hogs and other varmints with it.

Thought about getting one. I’ve killed a bunch of deer with my .17 HMR.

I have been reading up on them, and some people say they shoot, then others say they are disappointed with the accuracy of them. From the youtube videos i watched, I’m not all that inclined to go out and buy one.

Hopefully somebody will post some groups and change my mind.
