Anyone have any experience with one? I would like to build one on a 77/22 Hornet and was wondering how the magizine would work. Will it work like it is, or will it need modifying? What else (besides a barrel) will need changing?

Thanks

Dear Moose,
Snagged the barrel off my 77/22H and put on a Shilen 17 and "Away we went!". Also made up a 17 Ack Hornet in an old Win 43 that is a ral hoot too. Wonderful, accurate little guns and fun to shoot. If you ned any help let me know. Got the reamers etc.

Aloha, Mark[in Or]

If you want to read quite a bit of some great info on the web about the 17AH....visit:

www.varmintal.com OR www.varmintal.net

Then go to "Varmint Hunting", then click on "17 Ackley Hornet" at the top. Not only this, but if you look around on the site, you will find much much more info on the cartridge.

I have a .17 AH on a Contender frame and love it. It`s been my main carry gun in the summer for acouple of years now. Mine love the Calhoon 19 grn. bullets. I push them at 3,600 fps. and the gun shoots flat to about 290 yrds. Not bad for only 10.4 gns. of H-4227. Be real carefull working up a load for it though, persure jumps reall fast and you need to work up 1/10 of a grain at a time with it, and then on the hottest day of the summer. Great round.
