I've got one in 17HMR, only got it because I was after a single barrel 410 and could get a combo with a 17HMR barrel mount base and hammer spur for about $80.00 more than a 410.
Shoots so so around 1" at 50m usually puts 3 shots into less than 1/2" but 1 or 2 shots always open it up.
What price are they asking might be better off spending a little more for a cheaper bolt action.

From memory he said $200-300 for the rossi. I'm not sure if that's new or second hand. I'll ask today
