Xm177e2

Really nice build of the XM177E2 and quite accurate too. Interesting sling.

I don't think the Winchester magnum conversion is very popular in the US, cost being the main reason, both for the parts
and cartridges but excellent for your shooting. Maybe try and locate some other brands of cartridges to test out.

Cheers Robert, it's a great build. I need to try different makes of ammo, the CCI varmit is impressively accurate I have to say.

Not the cheapest to feed, bit I've a really nice Tippmann M4-22 for 'cheap' .22lr shooting. The XM has to be used in moderation...

Very expensive ammo here too but I'll bet the FMJ ammo or HP would be effective in use. Lots of power considering what it is.

I certainly wouldn't want to get hit by winmag Jim, it's got a surprising amount of punch for such a small round, especially HP.

I've noticed it's pretty much unaffected by wind out to 100 yards.

It's printing 2" inch groups and that's with a railway track switch leaver milspec trigger.

A lighter trigger and I would think you would pull the goup in by half an inch.
