The Rimfire Report: Hornady 17 gr VMAX 17 HMR by the Numbers
Hello and welcome back to another edition of The Rimfire Report! This ongoing series is all about the rimfire firearm world and all of its cool guns, ammo, history, and more. Today's subject is Hornady’s light and speedy 17-grain V-Max 17HMR loading. Primarily used for pest control and varmint hunting, .17 HMR is still a fairly rare ammo type these days due to its high cost and limited list of firearms. Today, we’ll check out how the ammo performs out of the new Bergara BMR-X Carbon, and of course, measure its average velocities and accuracy out of what I’d consider to be a pretty typical varmint hunting setup. Let’s get to it!
