    Just picked up this CZ99 17hmr for my boys, we've needed something a bit more capable for a while now. Lovely deep polished bluing on these and decent wood. Came with 190 rounds too which was a nice bonus.

    Got an old savage rifle I repurposed years ago.
    Mag was rooted and gave it to a guy that badly needed one.
    If you know where one is I might be interested
