New England Sportster 17 Hornady Magnum Rimfire. Here's strong medicine for varmints! The NEF Sportster 17 HMR is chambered for the hottest rimfire cartridge on earth. Hornady's 17 Magnum Rimfire is the same length as a 22 Win mag cartridge, but generates an amazing 2,500 fps muzzle velocity, at least 25% faster than the 22 Mag. It fires a high-performance 17-grain V-MAX boat-tail jacketed bullet. The Sportster 17 HMR features the field-proven break-open, side-lever single shot action and a heavy 22" varmint barrel, complete with scope mount. The stock and fore-end are high-density black polymer, with recoil pad and sling swivel studs.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this particular item.

Introduced by Hornady in 2002, the 17 HMR has become extremely popular and is the standard alternative to 22 rimfires for small game and small varmints. Most manufacturers who produce rimfire rifles chamber to it, and all major ammunition manufactures load ammo. The 17 HMR was created by necking down the 22 WMR cartridge, resulting in a lighter but much faster load. Most common are a 17-grain bullet at up to 2550 feet per second; and a 20-grain load at 2375. No 17-caliber bullet bucks wind particularly well, but the 20-grain bullet, though slower, holds up a bit better and tends to offer better penetration. Perhaps the greatest attribute of the 17 HMR is accuracy that is consistently good and often exceptional, effective to as far as 150 yards under calm conditions. As a hunting cartridge it should be limited to animals smaller than coyotes. — Craig Boddington
