Adam:
I went with this cartridge as it was just what I'd been looking for at least ten yrs.
Small, quiet, fast vel's, accurate, cheap to load for. At the time I started looking for a very small .17 I was offered a MIV. After hearing it go off a few times I knew it was too much for my desires and needs. So I kept looking until I got on here with you guys and several sent me dummy rnds and brass for quite a few to ponder over.
When foxhunter sent one from this same rifle that was the one I'd wanted all along. I never expected he'd decide to sell this gun when I happened to have the funding in hand. When he offered it at a price I felt/feel was plumb reasonable I didn't hesitate to go for it. Then getting to meet him and his lovely wife at their place in the woods was a bonus.
