Sprackles..

As I have said on several other forums the 17 HMR is a shooters gun..... the more you use it the better you will become with it..... It is an extremely accurate rifle.
I too use the CZ American.
Yes in windy conditions over 100 yds.. it can move off line slightly .... but you learn to compensate for that .....
We regularly use it taking rabbits out to 150 -160 yds.... and the odd fox...... NO PROBLEMS...
On here and other shooting sites you will find there are those who cannot stand them and are very vocal about it.
Those of us who have got used to them and can shoot them, think that it is an EXCELLENT rifle.
Keep using it and you too will become a convert ....

Cheers David.
