sweet lookin gun! do you mean your mad at how much the wind effects it? i heard the .17's are bad at wind resistance which is why i was looking twards the .22 wmr or the .22-250
The 22 mag and the 22-250 are two different classes. The nice thing about the 17 is the accuracy that that the 22 mag does not have and will not richocet. The 22-250 has recoil that the 17 has none and it really quiet, almost like a 22 mag. Check this out http://www.chuckhawks.com/magnum_rimfire_comparison.htm
I am flat out amazed at the accuracy of it and its ability to kill to 120 yards. My buddy wanted to put down a rooster that was really ignroant and attacked anyone that walked into the coup. It would spur you even after booting it. We put it out at 120 yards it took a neck shot!
