New Winchester .17 (20 grain at 3,000fps)


Recommended Posts

we still get HMR ammo for £10 a box so not bad price wise, this is another one we don't have any quarry for in the UK. Its not a bunny gun and its not a fox gun just like the 17 hornet .22 hornet etc when you go centerfire you might as well go for a proper one

Not really much use for it here either, too big for squirrels, not big enough for coyotes. I suppose if one hunted skunks it would be just right--but I don't. The 20 Vmax is great for fox but abysmal for Coyotes , coming apart on the hide before penetration is reached. Those here that try the HMR for Coyotes are badly misinformed or foolishly optimistic. Probably great there as you have tons of rabbits--just don't see many here.
