[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 773591, member: 48043"] Who the heck would use a 17 cal on deer?? In most parts of the U.S. if you shoot a deer with under either a 22 or 24 cal (depending on the state) you will take a fine and possibly loose your hunting rights for a year or more. The sub bores don't work well even with mono bullets either. You actually have to hit them with more weight than a housefly doing 4000 fps for a bullet to kill well. Not enough inertia to break bone or carry deep on a raking shot. I realize this is probably bait, but I don't care; it's simply bad advice. Are you still with GS custom bullets?? [/QUOTE]
