Now see I like the 3 position safety - very positive, safer while unloading, just as fast to off. I'm gonna sell my tang safeties.

Good to see that they're getting on the 17 HH wagon.

I didn't know they did them in a lever action?? You're not referring to the No. 1/No. 3 single actions are you?? Either would be sweet.
 
Well I guess I was wrong. I swore they made the model 96 in a 22 hornet. But I can not find one anywhere. But it still would be a sweet gun

I would love to have a Ruger #1 in 17 Hornet...

... but a CZ heavy barreled varmint will suffice for a while

I don't like the stock on the #3... and that guy really loves that gun at that price, cuz he's sure gonna have it a long time

Received my 17 Hornet today. I need to get some rings and find some time to get to the range. I will be shooting factory ammo to try it out and will load for it after that.
 
I have one and it is a great shooter. I have about 50 rounds out of my model 25 savage. Have a 22 hornet in a ruger 77/22. The savage right out of the box is a great shooter.

I figure it for a dandy called fox round.
Just a little better on moose than the 17HMR!

Mine was $495 shipped. My first impression was good. I like the feel of it. Seems to be well built. I like the detachable mag and it has a spring to eject it when you depress the button. It has the heavy barrel. I mounted a 3-9x40 Burris FFII on it last night. Would like to have something stronger to see how tight of groups I can get but that is what I had laying around.
 
Could one of you guys post some Pics of the Ammo for 17ah and this new hornet?? Please!!! I have never seen one also put like .223 round in for comparison. Thanks Jeff
