The Annie's on hold for the moment So I have decided to take up photoshopping rabbits and foxes
I picked up the new S#^t Savage 93 bvss 17 hmr earlier than planned!
Scope is a Duralyt 3x12 x 50
Taking it up the bush this weekend to sight in and hopefully knock over a few bunnies and lamb munchers
Cheers Mark

Sighted in the .17 on the weekend
More than happy with its accuracy for a "cheapie"
Took 3 shots to get it on the bull at 50m then moved it out to 100m
10 shot group below
In the rain with a gusty crosswind of a bipod it's ok [attachment=0]image.jpg[/attachment
Unfortunately the weather sat night was not kind.... no foxes or bunnies were seen
We did knock over a few long range bunnies sat afternoon with the 22-250 and 223
Cheers Mark

Nice scope .

Yes Big G It's over scoped to the buggery ..scope cost nearly twice as much as the rifle ...but it was spare so it will live there until my I get my Sambar gun
It's a nice gun to shoot ..first time in a long while I can see the bullets hit the paper
With the heavy varmint barrel theres no recoil at all
Cheers Mark

looks pretty respectable.....for a cheepie
Had a shot with it myself. Very impressive, I've never shot a 17HMR before and it definitely has the punch that a 22LR doesn't. I wouldn't call it a cheapy, I'd call it excellent value (love the stock, stainless, and that scope).
It's a keeper christened it on 2 bunnies last night
Got one of those calls.. Foxes taking lambs of a friends property ( it's on the outskirts of Melbourne) they only wanted rimfires used so it would not upset a green neighbour
Unfortunately no foxes seen but on the way back picked up 2 bunnies second one was a head shot at about 100m rabbit was sitting behind a log and only its head was visible....
