[QUOTE="CNY Yote Hunter, post: 2661495, member: 109650"] By far my favorite ammo to date with the 17 hornet is the 25hp from Hornady that are now discontinued. You can still find them in packs of 500 on midway here and there. I use 10.6 grains of H4198 and CCI 400 primers, standard seating depth per load found in Hornady reloading manual which I don’t remember without looking and I’m not home to do that…. But anyways I’ve crushed a lot of coyotes and fox with that load out to 300 yards with awesome drt results. I had one that splashed on a yote though, hit the shoulder and left a softball size hole in the pelt, dog was down but it took another round to the vitals to finish it so shot placement is definitely key on the bigger critters. Gun used is a savage 25 walking varminter, 24” barrel… [/QUOTE]
