Anyone selling a cheap .17 HMR ?


Recommended Posts


Be careful buying second hand it may be shot out. Edgar Bros say the czs are only good for 7,000 rounds. The powder in the cartridges are very corrosive and when shot the hot air in the moderator cools and forms a liquid that is corrosive to the barrel.

Snap - one of my Sako Quad HMR's was shot out by 7k rounds, as was brothers Annie.

I got another one with a varmint barrel for £450 to use wi a dedicated NV, had less than 300 rounds through it but no good for someone who wants a cheapo one.
