I enjoy your realistic reviews. You can tell that you're never trying to sell us on anything, only showing us what we need to know and setting our expectations appropriately. I think that is why your channel is successful. I have the A17 as well but not the pro varmint version. Your group with that ammo is actually better than anything I've tried in mine.

You aren't kidding about that trigger, my accutrigger just breaks clean after you take up slack in the blade. That might be worth contacting Savage over. Also, depending on your use, you may reconsider trying other loads to see if it likes something else more; my 93r17 will print groups, like the one you shot at 50 yards in the video, at 100 yards all day long. I know that's semi vs bolt, but my point is savage barrels are capable of more. Good video as always.

Happy New Year to you, too, Buffalo. Probably THE best firearms channel, and I've watched just about ALL OF THEM. He's not arrogant, he has zero EGO and never pushes a product or company. Just honest opinions and honest reviews. ONE of the biggest reasons why I love this channel is because he uses firearms that almost all of us can actually afford to own and shoot, unlike 90% of all the other channels that only show expensive ass guns that only the 1% can afford. KEEP UP THE FANTASTIC WORK BUFFALO 😊

I have one of these as well, everything said here is spot on, it performs exactly like stated. The trigger has been the main complaint everywhere, and I opted to purchase the Jard replacement trigger in a 1 pound pull. That elevated this system way up, nice and crisp with no creep or over-travel, makes it a little more accurate. Hope all went well through the winter storm, and have a great day.

It's a bit of a disappointment to have Savage NOT listen to the rifle owners who have complained about the difficulty of loading that 'bear of a magazine'. I guess most of us are so used to loading up other magazines similar to this one, and with little problem, that we do find issues with the Savage copy ( copy in tyhe real sense and meaning of the word here ) I did call Savage Canada (a few years ago) on my difficulty in trying to load up the mag. but they didn't seem to give me much hope of having a look at this problem./ end result, I've been buying competing rifles, ruger american rimfire, marlin ( when I could ) CZ , Chiappa etc. Thanks Buffalo, for this video and I always find your content to be enjoyable AND informative,.... all the best of my good wishes for the New Year 2025.

I don't think the problem is the magazine guys. I own the A17 & A22 Savage. I had a magazine problem with both of them. The solution for me (Boyd's Stock) on both was the front screw does 2 things. 1. Tightens the stock to the rifle. 2. Captured between the stock and front screw is a plastic tab that the magazine latches itself to. That tab most likely needs to be extended. It is adjustable fore and aft. While you're in there do a little inleting if it's needed to ensure the depth of the magazine pocket is deep enough so that the magazine is not kept from letting the latch do its job. That was the fix for me, and the magazine stays put. I hope this helps you.

@@randy71646 Randy I think they are talking about a different magazine issue than you are. Maybe I am wrong but it looks like they are talking about the difficulty of loading cartridges into the magazine (which I can attest to) while you are providing a fix to loading and keeping the magazine into the rifle. So basically you are saying the magazine isn't the problem while pointing out a whole different issue with the magazines. These magazines are terrible.

@@phantasmorama8997 I agree. As the magazine ages and user acquires some muscle memory, it gets much easier. Easy to service as well. The spring in several of my magazines have maintained good pressure for having a few thousand rounds run threw them. Rebuild parts are available. I failed to recognize the process of loading the ammo. When I first purchased my A17 and A22, the problem was inserting the magazine into its magazine well. The magazine kept falling out.

After sighting in my scope I put 3 of my hand-loads in the same hole in the middle of the bullseye at 50yd. It was pouring that day (as it does for 10 months straight) in the western Soviet of Washington so I didn't feel like getting soaked to set a 100yd target --- some day soon.

I love my A17. It shoots damn well. right around 1/2" 10 shot groups. Thanks for showing us yours. Mine is just the sporter model, in the pepper laminate stock. I prefer those much more than the plastic stock Savage uses. Yours is very nice, and I like the heavier fluted barrel. As for the ammo, mine does not like the A17 ammo, but dotes on regular old Hornady and Federal plastic tip ammo.

I feel I'd generally stay away from .22wmr pattern semi-autos (.17 hmr and such), due to the historical issues they've had with case blowouts, difficultly in action reliability, prone to fouling related malfunctions and so forth. It's just a rifle casing that wasn't designed for gas pressure cycling in general. I'm a big .22wmr advocate in manual actions (single, slide, revolver, bolt, lever), it's such a capable and versatile cartridge with double the reach of a typical .22lr, the cartridge packages very tidy, reaches into self defense territory, doesn't cost a ton, and primers are generally more reliable than the LR.

Good to see another Buffalo video. I haven't really found the purpose for a .17 caliber round, but still look at the rifles. It isn't something that you could really suppress, as I haven't seen sub sonic rounds for it. Where I live, quiet is good, so I am always looking for either a .22 rifle with a threaded barrel, or replacement barrels for other handgun calibers when I get the hankering to buy some steel.

Happy New Year, Buffalo! And I hope it is a great year for you and your family! With all the rimfire cartridge development in recent years, such as the .17 Winchester 'Super Mag', I'd love to see someone come out with a 6mm (.24) or .25 caliber rimfire with 60 gr. or 70 gr. bullets. Seems like the .17 Winchester Super Mag, which is based on a .27 caliber nail gun cartridge, could just as easily be necked up to .24 or .25 caliber. It would be a great choice for larger varmints (raccoons, foxes, coyotes) Just wishing out loud. 🤷‍♂

Happy New Year, sir. My Ruger .17 bolt action with bull barrel is so fun! My ammo bill with a semi-auto, with 3 boys, 😖. Keep them coming!! You’re the best pistol shot since Wild Bill or Doc, I would bet my check on it!!

Happy new year man . I love 17's , my mate has got a savage .17 on a bolt , proper tack driver , We cant have semi on anything other than .22lr . 17 is so safe in comparison to the .22 for ricochets on stoney ground the way they fragment .

Another great video Buffalo, thank you. I see you're not the only one that doesn't have a gushing opinion of the Savage trigger. My nephew has a .270 that has one. I wonder if a Timney trigger wouldn't be a great improvement on those rifles. To me a trigger is the heart of the gun.
@buffalosoutdoors
@buffalosoutdoors Ай бұрын
If it's anything like this one, I'd say pretty much anything aftermarket would be an improvement. I do not like this trigger at all and I'm no trigger snob.

I had no idea that Lab Radar LX existed. I was hoping it would be cheaper than the Garmin - which I also can't justify spending $600 for. Looks like it reads very well.
@buffalosoutdoors
@buffalosoutdoors Ай бұрын
It reads a lot better than my chronograph. I’m going to make a video showing some of the features it has but I have to learn them all first 😂 I’ve only had it since Christmas. Thanks for stopping in my friend. It’s always appreciated!
@taofledermaus
@taofledermaus Ай бұрын
@@buffalosoutdoors Impressive it read those tiny and fast bullets so well. I heard the big differences between this and the Garmin is this will give you bullet coefficient readings. Maybe you can figure out how to show that. Perhaps deform the noses of some .22lr and see if you get different readings from non-deformed? Just an idea.

Always thought rimfire guns should have a last round bolt hold open as dry firing is a no no. I can't shoot and count at the same time. Great video as usual.

I wish it was better too! Maybe they aren't all as bad as the one on my rifle. The Jard is a great option but they're spendy. I'm tempted.
