When is Savage bringing the 25 in 17 hornet to market?

[Big Old Boy]

it should be out by 2014. I stoped waiting a got a Ruger 22-250.

CZ hints the same "new for 2012" in 527 model. But haven't seen them from factory, or there is a custom available on gunsamerica.

Per Savage: A mag fitment problem in all models. Call in about a month for more info. :( :( Mark

Well....someone inquired about buying my .17 Fireball barrel that's currently wrenched onto my Stevens frame. I'm glad I didn't sell it to him. (actually, I have the PM saved and I told him I'd gladly sell him the barrel as soon as I had the new Hornet in my grubby little paws.) Something tells me it's gonna be a 2013 issue. ::)

coming from a guy that owns upwards of 20 savages. this is disheartening.......keep stringing us along and then nothing...... shoulda had the bugs worked out before they released it

Yup, Yup, and I couldn't agree more.

CZ I believe is due first quarter 2013 in the USA according to reports at Saubier.

I just talked to Savage and the salesperson said an email was issued yesterday that 200 17 hornets will be shipping this week to various distributors.

That doesn't even equal 4 to each state.

Are you using Obama's state count or the number of stars on our flag?

[leo158]

Anyone get one of the 200 rumored to be shipped last week?

Ahhh. ;)

Talked to Savage yesterday and she said: The 22's are going out now but check next month on the 17's. Oh Well! Mark

[Appleseed]

Send your CZ to sinman and he'll put you a switch barrel with smooth barrel nut on your .221fb or .22 hornet. Mine works, it was another test project for Devin.

[leo158]

Come on savage. I am still waiting here for the 17. Also I would like to know is it possible for us to get the 3600fps out of reloads or are we being chained by hornady to buy their ammo? If so,then I would think the remmys would be the better choice to just download their 17. Just rantin a bit. Dan

[Big Old Boy]

caii Hornaday they will give you the load info.

[davemuzz]

Yeah....I have load data from Hornady. I have bullets. I have brass and I have powder. I even have the dies and I have had 'em for 2 months or more. I just wish Savage or CZ or someone would release a bolt action rifle in .17 Hornet. Sometime.....before I die...in the near future.....like they said they would......weeping, weeping........sniff, sniff.
