Anybody had time to develope a trajectory table for the .17? Would be interested in multiples of 25yds out to 200. Where would the second dead-on range be for a 30yd zero? How far could you shoot and never be more than 1/2 inch high or low? 1 inch? 2 inches? I know some of you guys have been playing around with this and there's no sense in reinventing the wheel. Thanks--Bill

Got this from rimfire central, hope it's what you wanted.


17 HMR -- Zero @ 100, 125 or 150 yd. Here is the graph.
I personally like to sight in for a zero at 100 yards. Some people like to shoot high at 100 yards and zero at a farther distance. Here is a graph of both options. I am using a new picture format. It is a .png file. Let me know if you have trouble viewing the file.

T-- I thought you might come to my rescue, seeings how you got TWO .17's. You're right, I could not get your graphs, but would love to see them. Did you do your own comparison to the published graph? What about a 25yd zero, 50 and 75? Inquiring minds want to know. Thanks--Bill

That is not my graph, I stole it over at rimfirecentral. Here is a link to the forum. Oh yeah, mine shoot almost identical. The 30GM17 (Favorite) doesn't hold up at the farther ranges though with the shorter barrel.
