Not really a big fan of rimfire's however here are the couple I do have.

Sig 522 with a very old but still good Weaver 4 power scope on top.

Savage 93R17 heavy barrel 17HMR with a BSA sweet 17 scope on top. This rifle is very accurate at 100 yds shooting Hornady 20grn XTP bullet.

S&W Model 22A .22 cal pistol with adjustable sights, another accurate little handgun.

Well Badger old son, a head shot from a 17HMR will take down a 100+ lbs wild hog so I don't think it will have much trouble taking down a badger. Forward the video to the 9.40 mark
