First time shooting the 17 hmr today I was impressed can that thing shoot.

At 150 yrds shooting pop cans with filled with water never think about doing that with my 22lr. The 17hmr is really accurate flat and is a tack driver but i still don't think a 86% hit rate is that realistic unless you have a big scope to see the tacks and a calm day. Ya that thread was annoying.
