Had another impulse buy today.
Went into a funstore to check on 22LR... ofcourse they are all out. See a assload of 17HMR on the shelve and ask if they had any rifles for 17HMR...
Looked at a Savage and a pretty decent Marlin before I saw the Ruger.
Really was impressed with the fit and finish of the Ruger 17 HMR so I went for it.
