Thread: .22TCM Micro Varmint rifle build

Not a lot to report on the TCM adventure other than Im loving this cartridge and Im having a lot of fun with it.
I spotted a hare out on my hillside this evening and rushed in to grab it. Id been messing about with the .223 barrel on the 527 action so it wasnt set up for a quick shot..
I thought Id take my chances anyway so as quick as I could I swapped the .223rem barrel out with the .22 TCM barrel, refitted the VX1 scope, threw on the bipod, suppressor and switched out the magazine.. loaded five 40gr V-max rounds into the mag as I walked back out to the BBQ table..
He was still up there soaking up the last of the sunshine, I ranged him at 230 yards so held a couple of inches over and let one fly..
bullet entered the chest front on and exited the rear leg which was just hanging on by skin. Not as messy as the last one hit side on but I could feel the insides were just pulp, most of which found its way out the exit wound when I picked it up.

Did I say I love this cartridge?
