    The rifle and him were shooting damn well, so off to the orchard on Sat arvo to find some rabbits....

    Great vid!!! What brand / weight ammo did you go with ?? Not touched 17 HMR though curiosity could get better of me...

    I have always found the Hornady 17gr V-max shoots the best.

    Had my mate out in the orchard again yesterday with his T1x 17hmr again. He's going good, his first two shots found their mark at 140 yards, then he dialed up and drilled a rabbit at 205 yards. He's well happy.
