I couldn't help but notice your high scope mount. What brand do you have on that .17 :?:LongRifle said:I currently use a CZ 527 V in .17 Hornet. I am loading a 25gr vmax over 8.9gr of Lil-gun. I am averaging about 3500 fps. I have also shortened my barrel to 16.5" and also threaded it. It wears a Leupold VX-1 3x-9x with the standard duplex reticle. Currently it's easily a 1/2 MOA rifle.
The 17 hornet has performed flawlessly on fox, coyote, raccoon and other fur-bearers with minimal pelt damage a I usually only have a .17 entrance hole and have yet to have a pass through.
