17 HMR
Commonly known as .17 HMR, the .17 Hornady Magnum Rimfire is a rimfire rifle cartridge that was introduced by the ammunition company Hornady in 2002. Hornady has earned its reputation for producing top-quality ammunition by developing innovative new products and technologies that help improve the shooting experience.
Why choose 17HMR ammo?
.17HMR was designed with a shorter case length than the .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire so that it could take a .17 calibre projectile which is commonly used for varmint control. Because of its higher muzzle velocity—it's able to travel faster than the average .22 LR round due to its smaller diameter ammo with less mass compared to a typical bullet in this calibre (.22 LR). This means that when fired at short range (up to 50 yards), it will deliver more kinetic energy than any other ammunition in this category—making it an effective hunting cartridge!
The .17 HMR ammo is considered to be a "varmint" round, and it's one of the fastest-growing segments of the ammo market. It offers an excellent combination of accuracy, mild recoil and flat trajectory.
Here’s a summary specification of .17HMR ammo:
- Ammunition weight- 17gr
- Casing type- Brass, rimmed, bottleneck
- Velocity- 2,650 fps
- Energy- 245 ft-lbs
- Available in soft tip, hollow point and full metal jacket (FMJ)
