It is the CZ 527 17 Hornet. I have to agree with you, it is a beautiful piece of wood it's on. I've seen a few others that look close but not quite the same markings.

Post by: Dale on November 09, 2015, 08:34:56 PM: I take it you're head shooting all these critters?... when I was shooting up there with the 22 hornet it was all head shots but we didn't get the blood you're getting... but we were laded way down too... that 17 is getting it done... I need to get out and shoot something with mine, just put a different scope on it, Vortex 3X12X44, a little more power then what I had {3X9X50} Bushnell Trophy...

Nothing's safe these days! Now if we can only find some coyotes local!
Title: Re: Bowman66
Post by: Bowman66 on November 09, 2015, 11:37:26 PM: Dale,
I try to take head shots as often as I can, sometimes I catch a jaw bone or a neck if they are circling hard and do the ole stop and go. The Hornady VMax can be a little tough on the fur at times though. One of these days I'll get into reloading, I believe the hollow points would be a little more forgiving. Hope you can get out soon and have a little fun with your new set up. Would love to see some pics.

Title: Re: Bowman66
Post by: Dale on November 10, 2015, 07:01:15 PM: I always loaded V-Max 40gr, but like I said, loaded them down, 11½gr lil-gun with a Fed sm pistol primer... I'm not sure loading the 17 down would be a good idea with the light bullets they use...

my biggest problem is you can only call at night in NC on private land, most of the good land is leased by the deer hunt clubs and they don't want you in there till after deer season is over... makes it difficult when you don't know anyone with land...

Title: Re: Bowman66
Post by: Bowman66 on January 01, 2016, 09:09:23 PM: I run the 17 Hornet, 4 head shots 1 gut shot on a dead run 1 neck shot and 1 low behind the shoulder. To keep the mess down in the vehicle I throw the fox in garbage bags, so come photo time the blood always makes the fox look 10 times worst than they really are.

The fox sure do seam to be in "heat", the triple was 2 male and 1 female, there was another one that got away.
Ernesto and I would guess that was another female and that he called in two pair.
I've been seeing pairs respond to the call for the last 2-2.5 weeks.
