Do any of you guys use one of these and what rifle do you use and what do you shoot? The round has just come out in the U.K and I was thinking in getting one for rabbits and crows. Any info. would be great.

It' s a great little gun. I have a new england arms single shot and I love it. I have shot armadillo' s out to 125 yards and I also shoot squirrels and crows. Rabbits would be great to hunt with the gun if you have the edge of a field or something to hunt. This would not be the gun you would want to have if the rabbit is running.

I also have the Marlin 17vs and gun is very accurate. I' m looking forward to see it after a trigger job, it is a little rough out of the box. I can' t offer any information about shooting any animals. I picked it up right before all the snow fell. Its my understanding we will see more ammo manufactures in the near future. No doubt a very fun gun, you' ll enjoy it.
