Both Ruger and Remington used old technology and failed with this cartridge and the smaller 17 HM2. I hope Savage has come up with something new that can safely utilized these cartridges.

Standard recoil operation is not going to tame these rounds. Some sort of delayed unlocking system is dearly need.

It is a real shame Ruger didn't come up with something for the 17HM2. That is one very accurate little cartridge. The 10-22 is barely strong enough to handle the .22 LR. As it is the 17HM2 will die.

I don't know back how many battered 10-22's I rebuilt back when I had my shop open.
