Do you shoot 17 WSM ?

[Iamnick]

How many pound pull do you reckon that trigger is on the low setting? I read where the rifle badly needs to get lubed when it arrives.

Not sure but it's not good. Maybe 4 or 5 lbs?

I reached out to savage today. Called em and the recording told me they were experiencing a bunch of calls and hung up on me which was nice of them.

Sent them an email. I don't think they can fix the issues I'm having with this gun and I definitely regret buying it.

After seeing that, checked the one I have, and there is some side to side wiggle, hadn't really noticed it.

This is a $200 gun at most. It's a joke. Maybe they will offer to buy it back idk

Been down that road with Remington on the 597 HMR. After Nov 15th I'll have some hunts done with it and will know if I need to go back to my CZ512 22mag.

I received my A17 Sporter .17 WSM a few days ago but haven't had time to scope it nor add a sling.

I also hope the rifle likes 20gr. I have a couple of bricks of it and only a partial box of 25gr.

I had hernia surgery 8/21 gone wrong and am laid up for maybe a long time more. So, will be lucky to hunt before hunting season closes 1/31.

My A17 Sporter has a happy home. I slapped on my old BSA 6X-24X scope and added a sling. Rifle shoots great and is sighted in. It likes 20gr and 25gr fodder.

But I can't hunt yet because of a hernia surgery gone wrong 8/21 and another surgery to fix the first one coming in a couple of weeks. I have been laid up the entire hunting season.

I seen Winchester has produced a new rifle for the 17 WSM. Maybe not new now. But fairly new. It's also available in 22 LR and I think 22 WMR. I looked at the 22 lr version in person. And I must say I was not impressed. I thought it to be of a lesser quality than the BMAG. Which I didn't believe was possible. Man I wish CZ would produce a 17 WSM. I would be willing to bet they couldn't keep them in stock if the ammo was available on a regular bases.

Yes, Yes, Yes!!!

C'mon CZ, and when you make one be sure and include some left-handed models. I'd buy one tomorrow

I want a right-hand action with a left-handed stock. Lol I really don't get why they haven't gotten into the 17 WSM. Perhaps a few thousand emails would get some results ?

I had an extra one but paid it forward to a fella in Idaho. And yeah, you need a .17 WSM!

I called them not too long ago and asked them what their plans were, and they did not include anything other than 22lr and 22wmr for the most part. I wish they would make some lh centerfires. Great rifles, I've owned a few, and still have at least two in the safe, one rh, one lh. I also called Bergara and they basically said the same thing, but they've recently come out with some nice lh rifles. I bought one of their Sierra Wilderness in 7mm PRC and I really like it. I'm still working up a load, but I banged steel twice today at 500 yards with two shots. It's not where I want it yet, but it's getting there. If they built a lh 17 WSM I'd buy it as well. I own three of their rifles and the two I've got worked out are absolute tack drivers. Someone please make a quality 17 WSM!
