I thought I'd post up a video of our recent hunt in Arizona for prairie dogs using the Franklin Armory F17-L (AR15), chambered in .17WSM.  I got to shoot some ground squirrels here in California before we headed over to AZ.  While there, I shot some rock squirrels and a bunch of prairie dogs.  It was a blast and I really enjoyed this rifle.
I hope you enjoy the video (it has graphic content)!

Thanks!



That is the standard color of the Franklin Armory lowers and it is very popular!

I was really excited about this caliber until I realized that the ammunition is non-existent. It is out of stock everywhere. What is the deal with this?

Is that a locked breech gas-operated upper?

The ammo is starting to show up almost every where, so check your local, large retailers, as opposed to online (although I just received a case of the 20 grain from Cabela's online about two weeks ago).

Gas-piston operated.



Here are a couple of range reviews of the rifle with more information:
