Hi all
Not sure if this has already been done so my apologies in advance..
Was having a chat with my dad who has both a .22lr and a .17HMR the other day regarding the difference between a .22lr high velocity and a .17HMR.
We both think that the .17HMR is going to be flatter round but with the .22lr being a heavy round its going to have more knock down power and with it being high velocity more range than a sub sonic, seeing that 80% of the time we don't shot out passed 150yards is there any need for 2 rifles???
I will add we haven't done any tests on this but would like to know if anyone has and there views on it??
