I delegated my 17AH pretty much a "yard gun" used for Starlings on the barn roofs and the occasional crow across the short pasture (157 yards). Being in a Ruger #1 configuration I put a fixed 16X Redfield 3200 on it with fine target crosshairs. This really isn't a practical configuration but it looks pretty neat. Makes those 75 yard starlings look like Eagles
Talk about scattered pieces with a 20 grn. vmax.
It just kind of hollows out crows.....
