What is the best 17hm2 to purchase? I am torn between a used anschutz 1502, CZ, or buying a new savage mkII and dumping money into it or buying a volquartsen summit. Anybody have any good insite on these choices or handled a couple of them?
Thanks
I went with a 455 stainless cheap synthetic stock. I dropped the 22 barrel and put on a Lilja drop in from the first run they did. Had to do some sanding (routing) work to get the barrel the way I wanted. Fixed the trigger (Yodave). The gun out shoots me but, one hole (ragged) at 25 and pretty close at 50 with Eley ammo. Thats all I need for tree rats. I couldn't be happier.
I just got a 452 Varmint HM2 from my LGS that used to always tell me when they got a cz in. I'd been looking long and hard too. Was in there for something else, and happened to see it. It's at smith now getting barrel threaded (that's another addiction) and I'm doing a stir of the scopes to get the right one on it. Hopefully it shoots as well as my only other varmint, a .22. Guess best way to find something is to quit looking for it....
The only HM2’s I have left are my 10/22 with Volquartsen carbon barrel conversion, and an NEF break barrel I got for $90 brand new out the door. Most of the ones I had shot well - I really wanted the anschutz 1502 to be the best but it wasn’t. The volquartsen barreled one is easily the best one I ever owned. The break barrel is as good as any of the others.
