Rabbit and two squirrels with a .22 air rifle. Should have had two more of each but too slow getting out of the car

Never shot a jack before. Last time I even saw one was at least 6 - 7 years ago.

Got 3 rabbits with my .17 HMR last weekend. Two head shots, and one in the chest. No meat damage at all even on the chest shot, and they dropped right on the spot. Getting slow cooked, pulled and covered in some sweet and spicy mustard. Great on a bun.

Not trying to start an argument here, but really how does a .22 have more intrinsic accuracy than a .17? A .17 simply wasn't designed to be as accurate? Granted I'm no Olympic rifle shooter but I can literally "drive tacks" off my target at 25 yards and keep MOA groups at 100, and do it far...

What makes a .22lr naturally more accurate than other calibers?

For maximum accuracy, .22 Long Rifle. I've had accurate .22s, but they can't come close to touching my .17, especially at longer distance. As a side note, I wonder how many here have hunted small game with one? My .17 is my go to squirrel and rabbit rifle. Doesn't waste any more meat than...

It isn't going to do anything to it. If a couple boxes of +P are going to wear out a good quality 1911? Then it wouldn't be able to handle thousands of rounds of standard pressure.

The factory trigger on my Stag was excellent, when I bought my lower I got a deal on an Anderson LPK, and it had just as nice of trigger although a bit heavier.

Well I talked to the guy I got it from, who actually builds and sells ARs, and said he got it in a trade then traded it to me not noticing. I was under the impression he built it himself, but whatever the case may be, he said he'd get a new barrel of whatever length I wanted and put it on for...

Well wasn't as dangerous as I'd have guessed then. Contacted the guy I got it from to see what he has to say. Don't really want to drop a lot more money on it to get it cut and re threaded but I'll see. Thanks guys

What would have happened had I tried to shoot it? Bulged or would it have actually blown up?

Yep in the bore about 1/4" from the end. Best pic I could get. Good thing I didn't get out and shoot it right away like I wanted to

I recently came into an AR upper with a linear comp on it. It looks like the guy who owned it before tried to pin the comp on to make it 16". First thing is its not welded, so it would still be a SBR. Second is the pin goes through both sides of the comp and protrudes across the bottom of the...

Definitely the .17. Learn how to shoot it and take head shots if going for meat. Ammo is easier to find, they are more accurate and gives you a much longer range. Sold my .22 when people were panicking for them, and kept the 17. Does everything a .22 will do and more.

+1. I always carry a small game head with me when hunting deer.

-Big Game: Bow, Marlin 7-08 if I didn't own a bow -Turkey: Bow -Home Def: Glock 26, or whatever is closest -CC: Glock 26 -Small Game: Birds : Mossberg 500, Anything else : Savage .17HMR -Range: Self built AR 15 -Varmints: .17 HMR

Was never a fan of my Axis, but I love my 7-08!

Built the lower myself, got the upper on a black Friday sale.

Had the Bushnell on a .22 target pistol and it was a decent sight. But then personally I've bought enough cheap stuff that's bit me in the ass I don't mind spending more to get something nice I can really enjoy. I wouldn't go any lesser quality than that. No matter how far you shoot it I like...

Ordered an upper for my AR15 build.
