Dunkield Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 So, you are finally coming around to the 10/22 way of thinking then Stuart? No Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 I think I am (like others it would seem) struggling with this picture of trajectory from a sub-sonic .22 round. Found it: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob300w Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 (edited) The black line is the line of sight, the red line is the bullet path, it starts off below, as the scope is above the bore. The point where they cross is a zero point, as is the second point where they cross (the actual zero) in this case, 60 yards-ish. So, at the muzzle, the bullet is 1 1/2" low, zero at 20 yards and again at 60. I'll take your "no" as "I'm thinking about it as they are far better guns than Anschitz and CZ's" then.

B) No gun has a flat trajectory, gravity starts to work as soon as the bullet leaves the barrel. Your gun is zeroed for 80 yards, I don't see the problem?

Highlander Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 IMO the .17HMR is the best rabbit rifle ever! Yes it can do a lot of exit damage (for such a small round) but it's soooo accurate that head shots are almost always OK and ensure the meat stays edible.

Evil Elvis Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 (edited) Your gun is zeroed for 80 yards, I don't see the problem? Thats the point Bob, its zeroed at 60 yards!!! Im not going to comment on it anymore until i have checked the yardage pro and have some evidence. IMO the .17HMR is the best rabbit rifle ever! and in your opinion a .17hmr maybe your idea of the perfect rabbit gun, but they are loud and expensive to use, if there are a lot of rabbits you cannot beat the .22 in my opinion...and yes, ive tried both.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it! There is nothing wrong with your yard-pro, it read exactly the same as mine when you came up to civilisation. Don't get paranoid about the gun, it works fine, just use it! I also have a 17, it very rarely gets used, the 22 is far more versatile, quiet and pennies to shoot. By which I mean that a hundred shots or so practice is not a cost issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
