    Question 17hmr options opinions etc ?

    Hey team,
    I'm looking into a 17hmr for rabbits, hares and possums after trying @223nut bolt action 17hmr.
    I was offered advice from a friend who does a fair bit of pest control to think seriously about the savage a17 semi auto.
    Looking around at what else is available a tikka t1x would be in the same price bracket.
    So my question is, has anyone had any real world experience with the a17 ? Are there other options I should be considering.
    I do like the idea of an accurate semi auto pest rifle. But in reality would I be better off with something like the tikka ?
    I just haven't heard much about the savage a17 platform.
    Thanks everyone
