For Bergara fans this is good news. Many of us have asked if they plan to build a 17HMR. I just received an announcement that the new Bergara BMR (Bergara Micro Rimfire) will be available in .22, 17HMR and .22WMR. It looks very much like their BXR (which I have) but slimmer. Hence calling it a micro. It comes with steel or carbon barrel. BTW I have the BXR with carbon barrel. It is excellent. I'll be buying the BMR 17HMR when I can find one.
