Fairly sure it will clean up. Larry

If I could find ammo for the 17WSM I'd redo one of my Martinis in a heart beat.
The martini action either a model 12, 12/15 or a International would make an awesome 17WSM and the work to convert one would be less than converting one to centrefire. But the problem down here (New Zealand) is that there is no ammunition for them that I've found.............Kiwi |

Not to worry, when they figure out that it isn't selling well here, they'll take the surplus WSM stuff to Australia and dump it on their market. Just like they did with the WSSMs and other stuff Americans rejected. Since it's just a relatively short boat trip away, you might see some then................... |

With Hornady offering 20 grain ammunition with their name on it next year (no matter who makes it), it will probably be just a matter of time before it hits your shores.

Is a typical 22lr firing pin hit good enough to properly ignite the 17WSM? Or is it a firing pin movement routine?

I'm sure I read somewhere that the 5mm Rem. Mag. operated at 38,000 psi and not 33,000. I can't lay my hands on the information right now. Perhaps that was the "proof" load. Bob |

Whomever has one on a cheap h&r do you like it? And how does it shoot? Just curious. Not a huge fan of single shots for coyote and fox but if things were cheap enough it may worth the effort for more neighborhood areas. Also anyone know how loud they are compared to the hmr? I feel like noise is the biggest factor. All my shots are safe directions the noise is what pisses off the neighbors. Not trying to jack the thread. Apologies if that's what I did.
