I have owned or shot just about every top rimfire going. Even very expensive European firearms. Coopers, Kimbers, Anschutz, Accurized MKII's, early Winchester's 52s , Feinwerkbau, Walther's, Browning's, Pardini's, Benelli's and accurized 10-22's etc... NONE has been as consistently accurate as my H&R 17M2!!!
BUY IT, you will not be disappointed!!!
I remember one day years ago at the range, I was shooting and had a small group of people shooting this gun. No one could believe its accuracy. One of the guys was shooting a 30 carbine and suggested I shoot where ever he did. I and others constantly shot the 17cal bullet INSIDE his 30 cal hole!!!
