For a $300 plinker or small-game getter, the Savage A17 in .17 HM2 is a fantastic little rifle. It's lightweight, accurate, incredibly reliable and fires a flat-shooting round that's much quieter than the .17 HMR. Compared to a .22LR, the .17 HM2 crushes it in every category but price per box. Ballistically, there's no contest between the two.Savage A17 HM2 Review Reviews
