I picked up a Savage Model 93 bolt action in .17 HMR last week. Came with synthetic stock, Accu trigger, fluted bull barrel and a cheap 3-9 X 40 scope for $249 at Dicks Sporting Goods. I replaced the scope with a Simmons and added bipod legs. Also picked up 2 x 10 rd mags.

The .17 HMR is a fast and very accurate rimfire bullet. I put down some really nice groups when zero'ing it. Trigger pull is very smooth with the Accu trigger. Heck of a gun for the money.

My only gripe is that I am not crazy about the magazine release design but that wouldn't stop me from buying the gun again.

If you are in the market for a well priced varmint/small game rifle, give this one a look..
