Let’s take a look at the .17 Hornet and .17 Remington and compare and contrast their attributes.

Rimfire conversion kits for the Blaser R8 rifle are now available in .17 HMR, .22 WMR, .17 Hornet and .22 Hornet, in addition to classic 22 LR.

Federal Ammunition has announced plans to offer consumers 40- and 50-count bulk packs of its American Eagle Varmint & Predator loads this spring. Shipments of the new bulk packs are being delivered to dealers now, and will be ready for high-volume varmint shooting this spring and summer.

Shooters are drawn to rimfire cartridges primarily due to the per-shot costs being significantly less than those of comparable center-rifle rifle cartridges. However, their downfall is lackluster terminal ballistics—that is, until now.
