Zeroing .17hmr after a good clean

The last time I used the .17hmr I missed a few :D

 

So a good check over, all ok, a clean - it has been a while and then a target session.

 

+ I had picked up a few boxes of the S&B 17g's (at £6.75 a box :yes:), so they were the rounds to go with.

 

Went out to 50 yards (and expecting / wanting to be 1/4 inch high to be "on" at 100 yards).

 

The target was shot clockwise from top left finishing with the central +.

 

All were three shot groups off the bipod at maximum magnification (except lower left + which was at x6). I did not need to adjust the scope at all (set for gold tips before - remington's).

 

The S&B's - despite looking a bit rough around the edges - worked great. We like the green tips :P

 

They do come in a cheapie cardboard box, so I transferred them into a decent (CCI plastic) box which will last field conditions.

 

Where them Bunny's :angry:

 

Cheers

I am trying to get my local supplier to get some S&B's, its looking hopeful as they mentioned trying the shotgun cartridges and loved them.

 

Just picked up another 500 Remmingtons today at 8.50 a box so the S&B's would be a good saving. Where did you get yours Andy?
