[QUOTE="rickyk280, post: 5683402, member: 22663"] I know you didn't ask about this caliber but I been a serious squirrel hunter for 60 years and tried about every rimfire there is. The 17 Hornady Mach2 is an effective round when the leaves is off in the fall of the year. It's fast and flat shooting, sighted at 0.60 at 50 yards it never gets no higher than 0.70 and isn't but a a 1.26 low at 125 yards. If the leaves are on or hunting with a tree dog a good 22lr is all you need. As for the 22lr vs the 22 wmr I would definitely take the 22 wmr rifle for the 100 yard shots. Like you it's headshots or nothing for me. A friend of mine just re-barreled his 457 with a Walther barrel in 17 Mach2. The one in my avatar is the older 452 17 Mach2. [/QUOTE]
