I have a Marlin917V with a heavy fluted SS barrel and topped off with a BSA Sweet17 scope. What do I mostly shoot with it? It's killed a ton of woodchucks. I bought it for my wife actually and she's shot quite a few with it. Most of our chucks are 120m and under and a lot of them in the flower beds under 50 feet. They eat her flowers and that's a death sentence She surrounds the house in flowers and busts her ass taking care of them so they must die. Also shoot a lot of cooper hawks feeding on the birds which she also has a lot of bird feeders. Only gotten a few squirrels with it and yes, it makes a mess of them.jttoo wrote:I'm jealous, the HMR is a beautiful (expensive) gun. What do you use it for other than squirrels?Radamus wrote: Also a few empty .17HMR cases laying around helped.
Man, the squirrels must simply explode when hit by the HMR!
