How is the wind in your shooting areas and range distance of shots. Just got home from a 4 day hunt wind was a big problem. .22 18.13s good at about anytime to 50 yards then a big guess. Shooting ground squirrels even with just an eye shot at speakers out to 50 and just a little into the wind hold off. Point, used the Crown quite a bit but then to the 17Hmr, love the crown. No noise and my spotter wife really likes it. Anyway longest Crown 100 with 4"-6" hold off for squirrels and birds, longest HMR 271yards 18" hold off for a rock Chuck.
