Where can I find the best prices for a Volquartsen 17 HMR semi auto?
I called Volquartsen and they say they have no issues with their 17 HMR semi auto...it is only Remington and their problem is they blow the case head off sometimes.

On the auction side, you should start seeing a lot of semi-auto 17HMR's, of all manufacturer's, cheap, after Remington's recall notice. They should be fairly heavy as everyone will be trying to get $$ before the announcement spreads.
You mean this one.
