Guys just wanted some input on this cartridge. For the last few years I have considered buying either a rifle or MGM barrel for my encore in this cartridge. But prices for brass and ammo have deterred me from doing so up until now. Recently I was in Gander Mountain for their store closing sale and stumbled across several boxes of Remington Premier 17 Remington ammo that was marked down substantially. I figured it would be worth buying just in case I decided to buy a rifle/barrel later on. I ended up getting 13 boxes for $14 per box. I currently have numerous small bore rifles (17 hornet, 17hmr, 204, 223, 6x45, etc.) but I like 17 Remington because it's something different that not everyone has. So in your opinion, would this catridge be worth pursuing? I guess I'm just looking for pros and cons as opposed to the others I already have. If I get one it'll be used primarily for coyotes, fox, groundhogs, and punching paper occasionally. Thanks in advance.
