Unless you have an aversion to CZ's, a 527 Varmint 17 Rem seems to fit your description to a "T"! It has a detachable magazine, and has a 1/9 twist barrel that would enable shooting 30 grainers for coyotes and 20's & 25's for PD's and gofers! you can down-load to a 17FB/17MK4 performance or normal for the coyotes. This just seemed a Natural, after reading all you want from a new rifle.

That's what I understood as well. On the 17 Rem...CZ still does.

i was looking for the same thing you are....17 fireball, detachable mag, available factory ammo and brass. i wasn't able to find what i was looking for, so i'm in the process of having one built on a cz 527. probably cheaper ways to go....but i'm a walnut and blued steel kind of guy, and i really want a detachable mag repeater. we'll see how it goes...still waiting on the barrel. chris |

Remington still shows 5 model variations available chambered for the 17 Fireball but none with a detachable magazine. They do seem to have dropped the 17 Remington entirely, however.

That's cool, I was just wondering because I had heard rumors that they were both discontinued for 2012. But its just that...a rumor as I have not been able to confirm it yet. Hopefully someone can one way or the other.

Glad I bought a 17 fireball SPS lefthand last year...with a new Timney 1.5 lb trigger and a BDL short action LH stock instead of the plastic stock it came with....it shoots pretty darn good.
Sure vaporizes the starlings........gotta try it on Crows this winter.. |
