Crow Meets Volquartsen Superlite .17M2

Hi brothers,

Following up on David's recent pellet gun work, the TCP wanted to do a little tribute to the "A Team" and take out a crow at long "rimfire" range, Skip Woody style.  Got this one this morning at 135 yards, measured by a Leica Geovid, with the tiny .17M2.  The 17 grain Hornady V-Max bullet got the job done.

This rifle was originally setup for nighttime jack rabbit hunting where it performs wonderfully.  It turns out to be a fine crow gun, too.  Low noise, very flat to 100 yards or so, and highly accurate.  The scope is a Bushnell Elite 3200 2-7X with the FireFly reticle. 

That is a Alangator™ TriMag™ Factory 10/22 Magazine Coupler with Ruger Transparent magazines.  A slick accessory giving you 30 shots, but only one was needed for this luckless crow.  One crow down before I even turned on the FoxPro!

Crow at 135 Yards

Glad to hear the hm2 is working for people. I have a 10/17 and a mk2 in hm2 that I hope to put to work doing this.
