charlie caller 3,654 Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 No its not, its a horrid noisy little pop gun, that wont stand a puff of wind Quote Link to post
Bigad 136 Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 No its not, its a horrid noisy little pop gun, that wont stand a puff of wind Yes the wind can blow them about but once you have learned to shoot you can give it a few Moa left or right and it's fine ?? Quote Link to post
charlie caller 3,654 Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 Yes or get a .22-250 and forget the wind (to a large extent) Quote Link to post
Bigad 136 Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 Yes 22-250 perfect fix for a fox problem they turn them in to a bag of mush . Unfortunately for my self land I have is not passed for cf but my mate has one and it did put a grin on my face Quote Link to post

camokid 125 Posted October 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 had a hmr for 6 years never had a single issue with rounds ... i have heard of a few problems but hmr are very popular and you would expect a few issues ... i have larger cal for foxing but on the smaller perms the 17 is brilliant for foxing... i dont see the wind affects it all that much unless you shooting 800 yards lol Quote Link to post
celticrusader 78 Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Every now and then on the odd night where wind does pick up it has its moments but I've never experienced any ammo problems and I'd say more reliable than a .22lr....just my thoughts. Quote Link to post
