    Strangely I voted .22lr, strange because I'm trading it for a .17HMR. But, it's the most fun gun I've ever shot, cheap as chips to shoot and makes you think while using it.

    Can a mod edit to allow for multiple selections?

    .22 only from pistol(Walther GSP) as I do ISSF disciplines, but for rifle .303. Really great fun. Open sights, wind in your hair ! Resting only from the elbows prone at 300 yds. Happy as Larry with an 8 inch group at that range :D

    What I meant was the list could be of both, not the individual calibres. :)

    Having said that, I've seen (and held) a 7.62mm pistol in Bisley some years ago that was shooting 1000 yards on Stickledown :eek:

    And hitting the bull :cool:

    This polls not any good for the people who shoot more than one calibre
    You need to use check boxes not radio buttons for the choices.

    It's better with just one. Everyone has to have a favourite when it comes down to it.

    You can always do another poll you know if you want to change it.
