    REMINGTON already has two .17 cal.center-fire, why would they bring
    out another one?
    I got one of the First, .17 REMINGTON, I have heard that they have an short Barrel like the 220 Swift, But so far I have saw no signs of ware.
    It is a 223 REMINGTON necked down to a .17 cal. and will shoot 1/2" MOA.

    There has been now word from Remington about the introduction of a 17 Hornet, they are still too invested in the 17 Fireball to bring out another 17 at this time. However you never know what might be brought out at the Shot Show in Jan.

    I am personally looking at the CZ, it looks to be quite a shooter. Plus there is never a issue with quality when you buy a CZ, unlike what has happened with Remington over the past few years.
