I got myself a Bunny Buster Ltd (Christian Hegg) 10/22 conversion 17mk2 with a carbon wrapped supressed barrel . Now i'll spend my days hunting down mk2 ammo.

Make sure you wear eye protection at all times with the 17HM2 in a semi. I had a bunny buster 17HM2 as well, new from Christian. Definitely no slight on his work because it was top notch, but mine blew up on the very first round fired. It managed to drop the hammer on a round that wasn't fully home in the chamber, blowing the extractor clean off the bolt with bits flying every where. Fortunately, I was wearing eye protection which I do with all my new guns until I have confidence in their operation. Gun went back for a refund and I bought a bolt gun since I had managed to amass 1,000 rounds of ammo leading up to the semi arriving. Lost all faith in the .17's in semi's.

If you want a semi auto rabbit gun I don't think you can go past a suppressed AR. No exploding, decent range, cheap ammo and it looks cool.

Yeah I know what you are saying, I always wear shooting glasses. Had the 3rd rnd fail and blow the mag out then the 10th a complete head separation leaving the case minus head in the chamber what a bitch to get out!! No more failures to date 150 rnds later. A wee bit disheartened as it shoots better groups than my Kimber Pro Varmint in 17mk2
