Default .17 Caliber Ruger

Has anyone else shot one of these yet? My brother-in-law bought one and we shot it a few days ago. The shell casing is a necked down .22 magnum and the bullet is a 17 grain ballistic tip. Muzzle velocity is around 2600 if I remember right. The round looks like a miniature high powered round. Cute as a button.

At any rate, this is a neat little rifle. After sighting it in, we filled some beer cans full of water and they absolutely blew up on impact. It should make an awesome squirrel gun.
