I think you did pretty good on the price, for what you ended up with.  I believe an 17HMR Sportster sell for around $200 new, no ammo, no scope, plus tax.  Enjoy your new gun.

My quandary, I personally, don't think I have enough Handi's but, I know I have more Handi's than I really need or should have.

Took it out and shot it today I think if there wasnt a gusty wind it would be a little better.when the weather gets a little better we will see what she will do I think it will be a good shooter.shot about an 1" at 30 yards with a gusty wind hard to hold steady in that breeze
