It’s got a 4x32 scope on it and a bull barrel. Sell for $225 OBO or trade for another firearm. Last edited by FreeStateHunter; 05/28/20 11:10 PM.

I have been thinking about getting a Savage in .17 Ive had a ruger american and a A17, neither were as accurate as I was expecting. Not so much that I dont like the A17 as I just wanted one for a long time so when I finally got it, it was sortof a letdown. Nothing wrong with it per say. I didnt like the ruger, just didnt like it. The A17 is more accurate than the ruger. Also I bought a nikon rimfire scope to go on the A17 and it broke about the second time I got the gun out, took them several months to get it back to me. Just a bad overall experience.

You right about the magazine. If I loaded more than six, it would jamb. Does better with the 25 rounders that snap together gorilla style. For without victory, there is no survival
