The .17s

Description

The one on the left is my New England Firearms Company .17 MkII and the one on the right is my friends New England Firearms Company .17 HMR.

(The .17 MkII is a necked down .22 Long rifle while the .17 HMR is a necked down .22 Magnum)

I mounted the scope (3x-9x) and the bipod on my gun, adjusted the trigger pull as well as sighted it in at 100 yards. I can now make a nice group, about the size of a penny at 100 yards. I could do better, but that is my own human error. I am going to make a custom stock for it an a few months, so check back!

The picture was taken at the range.

I like that full pistol grip skeleton stock. More natural position for the wrist when shouldered. How's the performance on the .17? What's the largest type of small game you could take with it?
