I have the 22 mag&17hmr , The 22mag was my first rifle it did for charles at short range . As said in earlier threads I think this round is better for fox ,but 17hmr is better at longer range rabbit crow ,etc.It shoots flatter.
each round has its pluses and minuses . And to our American cousins ,unfortunatly there is no Market for Charles coat so the damage does not matter just the humane kill.
