Personally I would have a .17 hornet or .22 hornet over the .22 mag or .17 hrm.
If you mean the new .22 wsm rimfire, the only bolt action, is a savage B mag and lots of bad reports.
I would rather the .22 mag over the .17 hrm rim fire, but the .17 hornet leaves them both lacking for small game, and is likely cheaper to run if you reload.

I agree in a way have owned and sold my hornet and reloading gear, I can go buy cheap ammo for my HMR and its an awesome cal on small game, cost of ammo doesnt come into it, unless your shooting with Rushy and Happy cause theyre use to the wasteful ways of AR15!!! always needing one or two or three follow up shots.
