ORIGINAL: awshucks
LOL, I "Zwickied" mine at 20 yds. Turned his big butt into cat food for the zoo. Arrow stayed in too!!
Dnk: I have a .17 also and they are worthless in a crosswind. Had a few .17 Rem and they were bad that way too. Even my .223 shows the wind affect at 100 yds.
You guys might get a kick outta this one. After my wife passed away she got a money solicitation from PETA that had a shiny new nickel in it. I put it up at 100 yds and punched a hole in near center w/ the .17 hmr and sent it back telling them I didn't think their organization was worth a "plugged nickel" lol. Never heard from them again!
awshucks, I'm sorry about your wife's passing. I think you did a very clever thing with that nickel, showing them that you didn't need their money and showing that they need to update their records on living souls also. But, you are lucky in one little bitty detail. They could have hadyouarrested for destroying legal tender. A felony. WOW! And to think I could have pulled jail time for all those pennies I let trains run over way back when. LOL. Isn't money fun to ruin? Or waste? Or spend? Or look at? Or, heck, you get the idea. LOL

I have thought about getting the 17 HM2 for tree rat hunting since it will not go as far as the HMR, but it is still supposed to be a great little round. Figured it would be great for making them fifty yard shots on the tree rats in early season. But Probably not this year, the Vortex is on the top of the list.
