Absolutely love my 17HMR, I'd use it exclusively for Rabbits and Squirrels if it weren't so loud. But for long range Rabbit control I wouldn't look elsewhere it's the perfect calibre! But inside 100 yards I'll use my 22LR to keep the noise down.

@@Hammerback0 I had 3 boxes of 50 of 17 WSM for quite a few years i bought by mistake when first getting my hmr. Then I couldn’t find a 17 wsm or any more bullets so i traded them in… BUT those rounds were MEAN. For rimfire only hunting situations that gun would be a mini .223. I guarantee you could smoke a deer with it.

I tried lots of different rounds in my Anschutz 1727. It loves the CCI TNT and will consistently shoot half inch 4-shot groups at 100 yards. Five consecutive groups measured .35 .36 .65 .72 .56 CTC. Three of the groups could be covered with a dime. Hornady VMax are a close second. The 17HMR is very accurate but sensitive to the wind. The trick is to send the rounds down range as fast as possible before the wind changes. The Fortner actions lets me send the 4 rounds downrange before I take a second breath. I was shooting prone with a bipod and a rear leather bag. The only problem is that I cannot blame the rifle when I miss!!

I bought my youngest son a Savage 93R for his 10th birthday about 5 years ago. We love the thing. I most shoot Hornady 17 gr. V-Max out of it. We're getting about the same groups you got with the Hornady. As small as it is I have to say it's not bad for hunting either. Shot placement is everything even more because it's so small. About 3 years ago I took two goats trying to raid my feeders with headshots at about 80 yards. Really fun plinker.

I picked up a box of CCI TNT yesterday and the seating depths are visibly different. Line up 10 rounds and level your eye to them and they dang near look like a row of crooked teeth. I don't even need a micrometer to measure the differences in seating depth, I'm sure the angles aren't great either. I haven't had this problem with the VMAX or XTP loads yet. I guess it could just be that certain batches are bad too.

The wind messes with the 17hmr at 100 yards pretty good. Plus velocities have extreme spreads I'm most of the ammo. If you weigh the ammo and use your calipers to measure the rim thickness. Then sperate like rounds into groups then shoot them and watch the wind between shots you can Shrink all those groups down.

My friend (Yes, I do have one, *_ONE_* - lol 😉) has been measuring across 5/6 rounds, and he fires 6 because he says that 70% of the time everyone has a flyer, and he throws out the flyer and then measures every one of the 5 rounds to every other round so he ends up with like 10 measurements, then averages them together and comes out with a completely different winner than if he simply went with the smallest group edge of 5 (6 - minus the flyer). I like that way of doing it because it shows which ammo has the most consistently tighter core grouping.

All of the 17HMR ammo is loaded by CCI, they are just sold under different brand names. The Gamepoint and XTP are literally the same bullet, as are all of the 17gr V-Max polymer tips, except for the newer VNT which is a segmented jacket. The TNT is a deeper, more hollow point, the Gampeoint/XTP are a more shallow/solid jacketed hollow point. The 20gr Gampepoint/XTP is the best all-around in my opinion, followed by the VNT for small vermin between 25-100 yards.

S I have been told this by many. However, my HMR seems not to have heard about this fact. Blind tested (so I didn't know what I was shooting), the different ammo gave different results repeatedly. My particular rifle liked Remington gold tips. Hornady red tips a close second. By far the worst was the CCI 20 grain hollow points. They were absolutely sh*te. So bad I killed the rabbit by throwing the 2nd unopened box at hit it. Until my gun says otherwise, then I listen to what it says.

Oh.... and as soon as you change the bullet head, you will get different results so you need to match the round to the barrel anyway. Bottom line - no short cuts. If your barrel don't like them, it doesn't matter what you think is the best overall. Its not a general argument. Its a specific one.

@@simonhamilton4562 I think Winchester might load theirs, but other than that it's all CCI loading. I picked up a box of CCI TNT yesterday and the seating depths are visibly different. Line up 10 rounds and level your eye to them and they dang near look like a row of crooked teeth. I don't even need a micrometer to measure the differences in seating depth, I'm sure the angles aren't great either. I haven't had this problem with the VMAX or XTP loads yet. I guess it could just be that certain batches are bad too.

Finally some 20 grain test. Would love to see some penetration test on the 20 grain. Just today some groups with 20gr soft point, hornady 20 gr and 17 v max 17 grain and got same results Hornady, v max and sp in that order. A17 savage. No one i know who shoots at fur uses 17 grain.

Here in South Texas, we don’t have a squirrel season. I know around Houston and East Texas, they has seasons on the different squirrels. I use Hornady V-Max .17HMR. I eliminate squirrels because they destroy our bird feeders, but it seems the more I shoot, the more they show up.

Nice video. I tested 17HMR ammo and had very similar results. After I tried to weight the ammo that didn't group well and I found the weight varried a lot, so I sorted that typo of ammo by weight and groups tighten up. Just inconsisten manufacturing.

Hello good morning! Tuve un 17 hmr marlin sintetico. Y he provado casi todas las municiones del mercado y la que mejor agrupo fue lejos la cci TnT. La mejor. Un solo agujero a 100 mtrs. Sin vientos laterales . Por eso me parecio muy raro que no se ajustaran mejor esos grupos

Mine loves the tnt's. Marlin here too, but it is the standard barrel. Into a dime at 100 in ideal conditions. Easily sub moa in adverse conditions. It doesn't like hornady at all, 2.5 - 3 inches at 100, yuk. Most cci seems to shoot ok, close to moa, but not really under from the ones I've tried. It really, really loves the tnt's, I was kinda shocked yours didn't. I have yet to try and 20 gainers, might try those game points or whatever it was that shot so well.
