Welcome to the forum. So you bought a .17... Now tell us about it, have you fired it, where did you fire it, did you hit what you aimed at? Did you enjoy it? Have you shopped around for ammo? What ammo are you shooting? Are you goint to hunt with it? What's hunting like where you live? Can you take some pictures and post them? We like to share...

well????
