I wouldn't mind having that on in .17hmr *drool* Wounder how well they shoot for the price

[Evan03]

you could get ruger for 429, toss a trigger in it and still save a chunk of change over the 504 17hmr, the 50417hmr will sale for about 625.

If this gun does not shoot any better than the original 504 in 22LR, I certainly would not spend my money on one.

[Evan03]

the 17hmr chamberd in the original 504 would more than likly hands down out shoot the 22lr.

the hmr seems to make most all rifles 1" and better at 100yds.

ive been thinkn alot on the matter and cant see getn the 504 when i could save some money and get the blued 77/22mag, then i have my 17hmr barrel that i can throw on it, that way i have the option to shoot 22cal or 17 if i want. not mention i have other ruger parts n peices floatn around that will come in handy blding another custom

in the long run i want save much money but id get more for the money im spending and have options to boot

Now I own Remingtons in centerfire, my Kimber 82 in 22cal is special but the CZ 452 American in 17 HMR is the best deal of them all. For a bit over $300 I've got a gorgeous piece, that shoots as good as it looks. The trigger was OK at 4 lbs, but a $8 spring made it second only to the Kimber!

about this gun is negative. I know 3 guys who bought one and none of them own them anymore because they were appauled at the fact that they paid premium money for a gun that would not shoot as well as a bargain basement Wal-Mart special. Gun writers hailed it when it was introduced and boy I thought I would look into getting one myself. I know 2 excellent gunsmiths one of which is a top flite rimfire match shooter and they both call them outright junk. I searched around and found a nice model 541 and am very happy with it. When you plunk down $600 for a rimfire rifle it had damn well better outshoot a $180 generic piece from Wal-Mart, and everything that I have witnessed with the 504 is that they don't. That's a darn shame because it is a handsome rifle. Ask a gunsmith and they shake their heads in disgust at what Remington is turning out. I own 8 different model 700's and love everyone but, the truth is everyone has been to the smith to clean up the sloppiness that got out of the factory

Just my .02

they bought heavy barreld rifles. ?? i wasnt sure they were out yet.


ive had few out of box 700shooters, actualy everyonme ive ever handled has done me well. i guess thats only 3 two are new within the last 2 years, the 3rd was made in the 80s and shoots with the best of them, all these rifles have had triggers slicked up and nothing more. id call these great guns


i apprecitat your response on remingtons rimfire. maybe they let the qualitly go when blding this thing. i dont think ill be trying one. partly due to if it doesnt shoot im outa luck. where i can rebarrel a 77/22 or 77/17 for alittle over 100bucks.

from what ive seen from owning a few ruger 77/17s is that they are shooters out of the box, ive had both the walnut version and vt in 17hmr. i think this is the only safe way to go.

again thanks for your reply and the heads up.
