How much a 100 for ammo?

I bought a couple of cases of Eley ammo (4000 rds) from Clay (SakoAlberta) in Lloydminster and it worked out to around $6.50 per 50.

I have a 717 also. The trigger is mucho heavy and for sure there are a lot of stamped parts. But they sure are fun in the gopher patch..

So who has 717s for sale?

There's a used one on the EE but for twice the price I paid for new. I don't think they've been made for at least a couple of years in the Marlin autoloader, don't see them for sale much.

My trigger is getting better and better each time I take it out to the gopher patch. I've put several hundred rounds through it now and I'm quite pleased with my 717. Yeah, lots of stamped parts but I only paid $150 for it and it's deadly accurate. I've been leaving the 452 LH HMR at home in favour of the Mach2...
