I tried to see if they could do one in 17wsm, considering they already do a 22 magnum and a 5.7x28.
Thought it would be a piece of piss for them.
never heard back. Mind you the guys at 55six hinted that they might not.

155mm

What sort of range ? I'm coincidentally chasing a few turkeys later this week

100 to 150 metres

I used one for a while for busting hares in the maize crops but have since changed to a CZ 527 in .17 mach IV. Found no real advantage of the .22 WMR over running .22lr and figured if I was going to be paying $35+ for a box of ammo I may as well be using a centerfire and hand loading. .22 magnum is way over priced for a cartridge that goes subsonic around 100y and really is only as useful as a .22LR.
Mine wouldnt feed anything other than the ballistic tip ammo but shot the Vmax very well. I ran a Hardy rimfire over barrel suppressor. I gave the trigger a good work up too as it was shyte out of the box, this came at the cost of a non working safety catch but I never use one anyway, empty chamber is the only safe. They need high rings to be comfortable.
Mags can be a bitch to load if you forget the little finger assist pin they come with. Shot plenty of hares with mine and the odd goat.
I see they have skimped on the barrel fluting now.. pity as there is a lot of weight in the tube.
