David I bought this on Saturday, if you are interested in the 9 - 13 version of the same with Pan and Tilt PM me. I have one but alot of my use is off a bonnet so the shorter model is better for me but the 9-13 is great for general field use.

Bit of background I googled on the new head of NE :
Gove needs sacking for shoe horning him into the job.

Posted this on nanother Forum but :
Basic fact not being mentioned or accepted by NE and some on here are that none lethal methods simply do not work. Impossible for Crows / Magpies predating livestock and nests and Corvids and Pigeons on Crops take no notice of Kites and Gas Guns after a day or so. The people making the rules don't understand what they are talking about.

Game Shooting and Wildfowling next in the Packham Brigades sights. Another step in revoking Private Firearms ownership which is why NE is towing the PC line.

Wow the Nanny state really is taking over, wonder how they expect to Police it or expect people to be aware. Madness and perfect timing to boot.

I've gone back to .223. .17Hornet frankly is a marketing load of puffery with one available round (that being Hornady 20gn v-Max. Great !!!!!) HW100 .177. // .22LR. // .223 - 40gn to 56gn, and 6.5 Creedmoor big smiley face !!
I have an HW66 18 inch 17H and for me it fills a niche perfectly for Foxing near habitation as 3 of my permissions are, it is so discreet with a Panther on it. Put a 2.7 - 17 STAC on it this week and took it to zero at 100 yards Monday evening. Bore sight then once nearly there three three shot groups to fine tune which all had all three shots touching in all three groups (it was very still). I love it and find the 20 GRN Vmax perfect for my needs, it puts them down fine. I have 22 FAC Air, 22lr, 17H, 204 & 6.5 X 55 which cover all bases for me. Reloading would give more options with the 17H should I choose??

The HMR does have a niche as a volume point and shoot Rabbit rifle, the only issue round here at least is a distinct lack of Rabbits. Good for short range Fox but I would say not past 75 yards and placement needs to be perfect.

Sako A1 Action, Pacnor tube and a Macmillan Varmint stock. 17 Fireball.
What scope for a Pard 007
in Varmint Rifles & Heavy Plinkers

The 007's are excellent units, you have either not set it up correctly or it is faulty and needs to go back.
