.17 hrm
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.
