[QUOTE="Greg Duerr, post: 1009128, member: 32685"] Ive never had a 17 before other than the 17 HMR..................I've had 22 Hornets, 22K Hornets, 19 Badger, .222 Remington................ I Have always wanted one and was told that I needed to try the 17 Hornet. I spend the spring months shooting ground squirrels and have done it in the past with the above mentioned cartridges. The Factory 17 Hornet says that the 20gr V Max is moving at 3600 I have not Chronoed the load yet but have reloading info that can push that 20gr V Max at over 3750 with VIT 120 or AA 1680 With the kind of accuracy I was getting, now that's impressive.............No recoil and you can see your hits...........and 500 loads per lb of powder. At first I had a tuff time finding Loaded ammo, brass and powder but after going on line I found everything I needed at Gun Broker................... I will be trying it out on Coyotes and Grey Fox this winter...........should be a super Fur friendly Cartridge. Bigger is NOT always better.................................. [/QUOTE]
