2023年1月21日 · The .17 WSM with the 25 gr bullet and higher velocity will drift less than any .17 HMR load, so that may be what you are asking. What the .17 WSM needs is an affordable but well-built bolt rifle designed specifically for the .17 WSM, like a CZ.

2018年3月30日 · Occasionally I'd prowl the 'net for alternative .17 WSM platforms, finally reading about the Franklin semi-auto at about the same price as the Winchester single shot. So I continued looking and hoping for a reasonably-priced .17 WSM nicer than a Daisy. FINALLY I discovered Match Grade Machine was offering custom barrels for Contenders.

2019年12月1日 · This was a 228 yard shot on a groundhog, on the creek bank edge in the distance you have to look close the groundhog is the very black spot at a hair right of 12 O'clock , I took a shot with a 15 grain Winchester NTX @ 3300 fps and the shot was good as shown in picture #2, still a long haul for a 17 rimfire.

2021年2月18日 · If I am going squirrel hunting I take 17 HMR, 17 WSM ,17 Hornet and 204 Ruger. If I am going coyote hunting I take 204 Ruger and 6.5 PRC for the big dogs!! I have shot many coyotes with 17 WSM, but only because they close!!!!!

2016年6月28日 · 17 WSM / BMag Target Accuracy I recently bought the B.Mag Target (Savage Model 96972) with the laminate thumbhole Boyds stock. I did a very nice job of glass bedding it with complete support where the barrel meets the receiver and back by the tang. (See Cavedweller on YouTube for a good reference model.

2023年1月27日 · Nevertheless, a .17 WSM is not a 500 yard-plus varmint cartridge on anything but the smallest varmints, as the energy has dropped to about what a modern PCP .177 air rifle produces at the muzzle with slugs.

2025年3月2日 · I had a Savage 17 WSM rifle at one point. It was an impressive cartridge but a clunky rifle so I sold it off. I have no doubt that CZ could make a nice one but I think it would have to be on their centerfire action. I don't think their std, 457 action could support such a chambering.

2017年1月1日 · I have both the 17 hmr and the 17 wsm and both are the Ruger 77/17. I like them both but the wsm is the clear winner in a prairie dog town, the hmr is good to about 200 yards with a few prairie dogs around taken around 250 yards.

2014年5月25日 · After foregoing three .17 WSM conversion projects (an 1885 Low Wall, a BSA Martini Model 13, and an Anschutz 1702), all for pretty good reasons, as I will explain shortly, I bought an actual new production Winchester 1885 Low Wall in .17 WSM on which a fellow member here provided a timely heads up (imagine that: me actually buying exactly what ...
