Re: 10/22 or 17hmr
Which one depends on your application. I use a custom 10 22 and a Savage 17 to shoot prairie dogs. I love them both. I agree with everyone that the 17 is devastating on small game, which, is why I like it for prairie dogs. Bua ha ha ha I have shot and killed coyotes with both and both were very effective. If you are wanting to eat what you are shooting at, probably have to recommend a 22 as there is less damage to the meat. If you are trying to separate body parts on impact, go with the 17.
