This is one of the original 17 HMR ammos and still the one that shoots best in my Ruger. The muzzle velocity is very close to the advertised 2550 feet per second, and that is about perfect for the V-Max bullet loaded in this varmit cartridge. Out to 200 yards they are devastating on prarie dogs and other varmits that size. They are NOT enough for coyote or anything that size. There are better tools for that job. Also, when the shooting is over just toss the brass and don't worry about reloading

Some of the flattest shooting 17 HMR ammo around! A bit on the pricey side, however, if you demand results when prairie dogging or just plinking at the range, you just can't beat Hornady's performance. Don't get mad at the ammo if you're shooting on a windy day though. They have a tendency to be inaccurate when weather is rough.

Wicked fast and very accurate. Its fun to use on Ground Squirrels and great for kids to use for target practice.

I like the ballistic tip bullets better than the hollow points. These shoot really shoot great!

For a fast, flat shooting round this might be one that you want to pick up. Hornady has always been one of the better ammo manufactors and they didn't disappoint with this one.

ok check this out. I was at a range in Utah and missed the wooden target. When the round struck the entire target hit the ground! I was shocked how powerful this little round really is! Low Recoil but gets the job done. BE careful if you are hunting small game. You will only see fur left! HMR= HEATED MISSILE ROCKET!

This was the first ammo available in large quantitys when the rifles first hit the market. I at first was dissapointed to find only one variety when I bought my rifle. But that soon turned into jubilation when I found out how amazing it shot!

This is a hot little round, very affordable and fun for those pesky little critters. Or to take the kids out and practice! Either way you won't be dissapointed.

My Ruger 77/17 did not like this ammo. Shot 1 1/2" groups.
