17hmr Sweet

[Cossack]

Been shooting nusance birds with a RWS 17 cal. pellet gun. At around 900 fps it's good for 40 yard or so. Several crows learned the range real quick and liked to hang out at about 100 yards taunting me. Unbeknownst to them I purchased a CZ 425 in 17 HMR. They didn't even bother to fly when I poked it out the side door. But one did fly apart! Unfortunately, the other one has been reeducated in estimating distance.
The CZ American shoots as nice as it looks.
Hitting a grapefruit sized water filled ballon at 200 yrds is no problem. But wind does affect the accuracy of the little pill.
