Fellas,
I am about to buy a bolt gun in this caliber and wanted some opinions and imput. I am wanting to stay under $300 but have no idea what to get.

The CZ 453 American or Varmint would be perfect. Ether is available in the 17II. You should be able to get one in your price range from a friendly dealer. These guns are super accurate and come with a set trigger.

Don't overlook the Savage line of rimfires. Very accurate and affordable.

I have one in 17HMR and LOVE it. Most accurate rimfire I have ever owned.

I have a CZ452 American in 17HM2. It has the standard trigger and I added Eric Brooks spring kit to get an exellent trigger. The 453 is the same gun except it has the set trigger but cost about 100 more retail price. I also have the 22LR in the same gun and plan on adding the WMR and HMR.

I too have the CZ 452 American in HM2 and I think it is the best rimfire rifle I have ever owned and I have owned rimfires in many modern day production rifles.

CNDD has CZ 17M2 on sale for $250.

The most accurate is probably the Anschutz. The most cost effective may be the CZ 452/453. The Marlin bolt gun probably isn't bad, but I like the CZ.

The CZ 453 is prolly out of your price range as they seem to be going for around $400 but the CZ 452 is close to $300 and will be a real shooter right out of the box. I doubt any other $300 rifle will give you as much as the CZ will.
