I would like to hear from guys with experience shooting this rifle. I have the .22 version of this model and it has been excellent. There is no reason to expect otherwise from the 17HMR caliber, but I like hearing from guys with experience. I've shot my friend's American version and it's better than average based on my having owned 6 different 17HMRs, but I prefer the heavier varmint model. I'll appreciate your help.
