Ruger 17 Hornet

So far the ruger has been about flawless, hopefully it'll continue to be that way.

The magazine was the other big selling point for me. Nice to have a magazine or two in your pocket ready to go when you get out of the truck.

Sounds good. Looking forward to your results. I received my new kindler bullets on Monday but haven't had time it load the first one! Maybe this weekend I'll get a chance.

I had the ruger 17 hornet.
It had a shotgun pattern at 100 yrds. Bullet holes all over the place.
Replaced trigger with little help. 900 in the gun and took a loss of over 50% when sold it. My first and last ruger. Hit and miss they say on their 77 models. 2 piece bolt dont help. The primers was backing out a bit also from pocket. Sent to ruger they said it was the ammo. I bought a case of HH ammo.
Bought a cz 17 hornet, same ammo used in the ruger and that cz is almost a tack driver with that factory ammo.
.5 or less at 100 yrds. So when I start the reload session in warmer weather, I know it will drive tacks.

I liked the feel of the ruger and the laminate stock.
But the powder coat finish on barrel scratched up very easy, also along with the crappy 6+lb factory trigger and 2 piece bolt, along with the pattern it put out, just turned me off on ruger arms.
But congrats on yours being a shooter. Would of liked mine to been also.
