ERIC.i think you should think long and hard about your miracle hmr,i dont want to pi*s on your parade but iv heard it too many times before about how good the hmr is on foxes.as i have said i stopped shooting foxes with mine and sold it 3 months ago.the hmr is a good bunny gun and thats it,the small17-20 grain bullet does not have enough energy past 100 yds for fox and as for head shooting them past that distance well?any way if your happy all well and good,at least i admit to getting it wrong,and i have moved on from it.
