I fire my 17hmr at a rabbit about 100 metres away, down hill from the bipod one day. Lined it up, bang, no reaction, no sign of ground strike, fired a second, same result. Then realised there was the odd piece of dry grass in the firing line, close to the barrel. Cleared the way and third shot, dead rabbit. I think the projectile exploded on hitting the grass? After two shots a no reaction, I figure they didn't get ther?
