Guest Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 I've recently been shooting a 17hmr, with federal ammuniton, and even at 50 yards, with a shot straight in the eye it doesn't make anywhere near that amount of mess. Do you think the ammunition makes that much difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think the ammunition makes that much difference? hit a few in the eyes mate, and the bullet just passes through. not the shot i like as the rabbit is still very much alive.

This ****** was very much dead! By the way the fact that it went in the eye was a complete fluke, i was just aiming for a head shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
