.17 HMR

.17 Hornady Magnum Rimfire, otherwise known as 17 HMR, is a rimfire cartridge designed by the ammo company Hornady and brought to light in 2002. 17HMR was developed by necking down a .22 magnum case to take a .17 caliber bullet. There are two primary goals with this caliber, varmint hunting and distance shooting, and it succeeds in both. Groundhogs, prairie dogs, squirrels, rats, and even something a little larger like raccoons are all in the wheelhouse of .17 HMR. And while not as cheap as .22 LR, 17 HMR rifles are still much more inexpensive compared to most centerfire cartridges. With Bear Creek Arsenal's selection of 17 HMR AR uppers and rifles, performance and accuracy are always number 1.
