I don't have a .17 rimfire because I have enough rimfires in .22 lr and mag. I'm not slamming the little .17s. They're a blast. I'm just trying to simplify my ammo cache. The same reason I don't own a .40. I have 9mm and .45 acp. I have both ends of the spectrum. no need to get the middle and have to buy a whole new batch of ammo.
Of course, all I shoot here lately is air powered, anyway. I do like those Savages. I have a 110 in .30-06. Sweet shooter.
