Henry .17HMR

Just wondering who has one or shot one and what you think.

I have just recently bought the Henry Golden Boy (H004) .22 cal. I thought about others such as you are considering but, I can have more fun at a lower cost of ammo and shoot matches at a lower cost and hit rabbits and other small game at a lower cost. The rifle itself is an excellent tool to own. It is smooth action and very accurate. Whatever you decide in what caliber, I'm sure you will be satisfied.

I have an AcuBolt in 17 HMR. At first the a fired case would stick in the chamber about 1 in every 10 rounds. That has seemed to work itself out. The last time out only one in over 100 rounds stuck. I do wish the trigger was wider, like on the lever actions. I find it a little uncomfortable and a trigger shoe is a little expensive right now. Accurracy seems to be good. I had about 1.5" groups the last time out in a rain storm. Most of my shooting is at 50 yards. It seems that whenever I've wanted to try at 100 yards I run into gusty conditions which plays havoc with the 17 gn bullets. Also, I put a 3x9 scope on it and put the 4X scope it comes with on my 10/22 which I just shoot at 50 yds and the scope has been good in that use.
