[QUOTE="SupressYourself, post: 402627, member: 340"] I wouldn't discourage anyone from getting another rifle, but what is the use-case here? Sounds like you have a capable 223. Are you just wanting something quieter for more chances at closer pdogs? 22 Mag is kind of the "308" of magnum rimfires. It's not the newest or flattest shooting, but it gets it done, and ammo is (usually) plentiful. 17 HMR and 17 WSM are newer, "better" designs, but within 200 yards, you're probably not going to notice much difference. And I don't know about the HMR, but I've heard the WSM ammo can be really hard to come by. [/QUOTE]
