I took out my 17HMR rifle today with a new bushnell banner super 17 on board.The scope seems to work great,it is clear, point of aim responds to both elevation and horizontal adjustments.Only took 5 shots at 25yds to get zeroed,then 10 more to zero at 100yds.
I tried out 3 different ammo brands.Federal 17gr,Remington 17gr and Hornady 20gr.Both the Remy and Hornady seem to shoot to the same POI,but the Federal was'nt even close to the others.The rifle definately prefers 20gr ammo,shooting a 5 shot group under MOA at 100yds.
With more trigger time I am sure I can get the groups even tighter.Overall I am very happy with this little toy and I am sure my son and I will have a great season clearing some farmers fields of the dreaded gophers.
