Teal Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 That's a good effort rab. Your decoy with rabbit skin got me thinking. I presume from the video that it is wind powered movement, if s if you clipped it onto the end of a fully outstretched bouncer- you'd get a lot more movement. Perhaps too much?

tikkamark Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 Well done rab great to see you getting good success with your hmr I used to knock a good few with mine before i got my 223 very capable little round in the right hands How do you find the knocking power of the 20grainers in comparison to the v-max's?I have a couple of boxes of xtp's but never got to use them on a fox yet so dont know how they perform Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rabgoat Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 thanks lads that's the first one iv'e shot with the 20gr round,,I couldn't see any noticeble damage but there was a lot of blood,i done some testing on thick catalouge books and the tnt 17gr seemed to do more damage as it traveled but the 20gr went that bit further,the v-max just went to piece's ,but i might end up going back and staying with the v-max's because of the way they break up inside and should do more internal damage..what do you think,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
