Re: Remington question

The Remington 700's a GREAT rifles. I have the varmint in .223 and it shot great groups at a 100 yards out of the box. You couldnt find a better rifle than the 700's. Sorry but i havent shot one in .204 but from the accuracy of the .223 id say that the .204 would only be better. The x mark triggers ...

17 HMR

Looked at some rifles in 17 HMR (marlin 917 VSF) and was woundering if anyone as any rifles in this caliber. From the sounds of it they have a flat trajectory but what im worried about is wind drift. Out to 100-200 yards how will it preform. I want to shoot coyotes but dont know how the wind will ef...
