Do a Google search on those, and read-up on those rifles. I was keen on the .17 HMR, then got cold feet after a night of online research. Can't remember what exactly put me off, but if you find something interesting..post it here.
 
Not a big fan of black rifles but in a 22 Mag looks like it might be a lot of fun. Any more details?
 
I hit SakoAlberta (Prophet River) up to see if they could get these in! These should sell good with the lack of reasonably priced semi rifles in 17HMR on the market.
 
I'm not sure if I like the look of it.
It seems.. I dunno... organic - like it was rough and edgy at first and then melted a little. Same with all the new car prototypes - they look awesome when introduced at shows, and when in production they don't quite look the same anymore. .. Just my 2cents, very personal an biased at that.

TO: All Magnum Research Customers
FROM: Magnum Research, Inc. (DE)
SUBJECT: MAGNUM LITE® 17HMR and 17Mach2 Graphite Semi-Automatic Rifles
Update to previous warning published by the prior Magnum Research Inc. on its website July 15, 2009.
In June of 2010 Kahr Arms purchased certain assets of Magnum Research, Inc. ® (MN). We have since incorporated
a new company named Magnum Research, Inc. ® (DE).
Although we are a new and different company, we would like to accommodate customers of the prior Magnum
Research, Inc. ® (MN). It has come to our attention that certain lots of 17HMR and 17Mach2 ammunition may
exhibit performance problems. These problems could result in damage to your rifle and may be capable of causing
injuries to shooters or bystanders.
As a result, we strongly advise immediate discontinued use of rifles chambered in both 17HMR and 17Mach2
calibers due to these ammunition performance problems. Although performance of ammunition is outside
the control of Magnum Research, we take safety concerns seriously.

Confused?

Is this thing accurate at all? Why is their a red dot, on the thing?

Second issue for me is why in a black rifle stly gun do I need 22 mag or 17hmr? Sure they are more accurate out to 100, but in a black rifle am I shooting out to 100?

For the price of the ammo I would much rather have something in 9mm, or one of the many new tactical 22lr's.
