I've got a Weihrauch HW60j in .17 HMR. I'm on my second magazine which has fallen apart. Parts are very difficult to get hold of. I will replace the mag or have it repaired but I'm not sure I want to keep the Weihrauch. For one thing I want a longer barrel. I shoot more at night these days and the 14" HW is not the best rifle on sticks. A longer barrel is more stable.
But do I trade in the HW and get a CZ or an Anshutz, or, do I go for a .17 Hornet. I know the ammo is a lot dearer but I can live with that. Its purely a rabbit rifle and recently I've found the need to push the range a bit. 150+ yards is OK with the HMR is its dead calm.
If I bought a Hornet it would be the CZ. Is the Hornet as quiet and as accurate?
