.22lr vs .17hmr for general rabbit shooting


Recommended Posts

Just get both...... .17hmr destroys the prey not much good for eating but excellent for pest control a hit anywhere.. dead, but poor in the wind. It's just the price of the ammo, .17 is not a plinking round unless you are made of money. .22lr steady gun excellent with subs, cheap, quiet and deadly accurate good for keeping the meat for eating and a good gun to use to introduce the young un's into shooting.

 

 

seen you said deadly accurate with a good .22 and good ammo what sort of groups would you expect from a good setup at 100 yards?

you already have it......   Had both, stuck with the 22.lr....

again, Andy, .204 is a decent round.... You have a .22lr, you'll have a .204.... you WILL leave the .17hmr in the cupboard .................trust me.........
