17HMR Rifle?

[Pagey]

In need of a little help, i currently shoot foxes with my 22-250 tikka, and rabbits with a remmy 597 .22, but have just been granted variation for .17hmr. Not to sure which rifle to go for, fairly interested in laminated thumb hole stock, nice trigger and screw cut, thinking savage 92R17, or possible a cz? New. Anyone had any good experiences with an of these or any different rifles? Any suggestions of rifles welcomed.

Plenty out there to choose from. I started with a CZ 17hmr. Usual quality. Bit of a plain jane, get what you pay for. Quality is ok but nothing brilliant . Then got a Savage. Like it but heavy. Now with a Sako quad. It had a few teething problems at first but once the master(Steve Kershaw) did some work on it. It now is a very fine rifle. Best of the three I have owned

 

It all depends how much you want to spend

No real budget, costs what it costs, pretty set on thumb hole laminated stock and short threaded barrel.

You want it to look nice then ........

CZ

Anshultz

HW60J

 

The above to my knowledge don't come with a laminate option but are what I would consider ..........I,m guessing you'll go for something American like a Ruger ,Savage or Marlin .

Yea like the look of cz, shame they don't offer a thumbhole stock, think i'm guna have to pop upto local dealer and handle a few..

[Oly]

From those mentioned already, tried and handled my preference would be in thus order:

 

Anschutz

HW60J

Marlin

Savage

Ruger

CZ

 

 

All will do the job, just some better (with better build) than others

[Dead-Eyed Duck]

I've got an Annie thumbhole stock.

 

Good piece of kit.

Yes and one day Don might learn to shoot with it.

Chap called vinnie on other forum does some amazing thumbhole stocks for the cz. Makes them look beautiful. If you want me to email you some pics of his work.

My vote is for CZ American 20" barrel, screw cut. Tuned trigger, modified SAK moderator, bloomin big Swarvo scope.

 

You can not go wrong :blink:

[Trefil Hunter]

anschutz 1517 all the way

 

i think it handles better than the cz and has a better trigger straight out of the box. it also looks nicer

Cheers chaps, just picked up my new CZ 452 16" Varmint Heavy barrel, very pleased, lovely little rifle, thanks for advice

[A Sick Old Man]

You have chosen well, get an Eric Brooks trigger job done, they are very cheap and the dogs cobs

get the best scope you can afford, now you have saved a packet by buying a CZ please do not scrimp on your glass.

 

I have heard that JLS make a .17 moderator, but I use a SAK and its fine.

 

Good luck with it
