I don't , I love it have killed out to 300 yards, see groundhogs shot ,9 this week one at 300 yards, can be wind sensitive but one can compensate . Have in three years killed upwards of 300 groundhogs and close to 100 coyotes,way better performer than the 22 hornet,that I sold to a member here. If the ranges become further than 300 than the 204 comes out. Great round as long as you're aware of bullet placement.Put a real high powered scope on it for precise shot placement, have a good trigger , mine is 8 ounces, not recommended for most but works for me , and go have some fun very accurate out of my CZ527 American.Below 100 yards benched solid.
