Man I hope that's true. A little heavier bullet would be a nice addition to the 17wsm lineup

Thank you,

My bet is that with Hornady making .17 WSM the accuracy we get from our B-Mags will increase. Maybe not fix the problem 100% but will for sure be more consistent. I can not wait and hopefully it won't all get gobbled up and sold for 3x the price like the rest of the .17 WSM
Got to try some Am Eagle, but certainly not bellyaching about performance of either the HB B-Mag or the new Franklin Arms AR type rifle with the Winchester stash.
Put a Boyd stock on the HB B-Mag, and haven't touched a thing on the Franklin.
The AR hasn't "missed a lick", as in absolutely no glitches in operation so far.
I guess they didn't ship them, until they got it right!
where did you get you franklin and how many $$$ :)
Anyone in the Central Kalifornia area: BassPro in Manteca, CA has Win. and American Eagle 17 WSM in stock. Quite a few boxes of Win. but only a few A.E.
I've just shot two mags of the AE 20 gain and the winchester both in 20 grain. My result are much the same as irish's maybe a couple more flyers with the winchester but no noticeable change.
I'll take the time to say that at 100 yards I'm still hitting in side a 3 inch box of the "shoot 'n see" target almost all the time. One group less than 3/8 of a inch! Maybe you are a better shot than I, but I find this pretty damm good for me. Today here ( buffalo ny) is cold snowy and lite winds. I'm sure that on a quiet sunny day this little rifle will be fine, and my shooting better.
i do like the 17 WSM it good to see other companies make this ammo too, more and different style of rifles are always welcome
had no time yet and bad weather here also :) been snowmobiling on any time I have had off :)
Anyone hear anything out of hornady? I figured since spring is here the ammo can't be far away now.
Anyone hear anything out of Hornady yet? I figure with spring being here the new ammo can't be far behind.
