That's about it.
Just wondering if its a good Fox - Fur friendly cartridge.

It sure should be, I downloaded a .17 Rem to approximately the same velocity ( about 3700 fps) and it worked perfectly...
20 gr. Vmax

Ingwe,the .17 WSM velocity with a 20 grain bullet is 3000 fps. The 25 grain bullet is 2600 fps.
It should be very fur friendly on foxes.
