From prairie dogs and ground squirrels to coyotes and foxes – the 17 Win Super Mag from Hornady is a fantastic new option for varmint hunters everywhere. Rounding out the Hornady line of high speed rimfire cartridges is the 17 Win Super Mag. Filling the gap between the 17 HMR and the centerfire 17 Hornet, the 17 Win Super Mag fires a 20 grain V-Max bullet at 3,000 fps.

Hornady’s V-Max Bullets feature a polymer tip which enhances accuracy and promotes devastating expansion. The tip raises the ballistic coefficient for faster velocity and helps to stabilize the bullet in flight. It also acts as a wedge, initiating bullet expansion. The copper jacket provides the necessary bearing surface for maximum stability out of the barrel, and the jacket is built to withstand the fast twist rates of the most advanced varmint rifles. Retaining over 2,000 fps of velocity at 200 yards, the 17 Win Super Mag provides plenty of velocity for the hard-hitting V-Max bullet to perform on varmints at extended range.

Features

• 20 grain V-Max bullet that provides tack-driving accuracy
• Muzzle velocity of 3,000 feet per second
• Fills the gap between the rimfire 17 HMR and centerfire 17 Hornet

Winchester Varmint High Energy ammunition was developed as a hard-hitting, high performing line of rimfire ammunition for varmint and predator hunters. Varmint HE ammunition delivers excellent terminal performance producing quick, humane kills. The revolutionary 17 Winchester Super Magnum is the fastest, most innovative rimfire cartridge ever developed. Based off of a 27 caliber power fastener blank, this cartridge produces centerfire velocities and energy in a more cost-efficient rimfire package.

Hornady’s V-Max Bullets feature a polymer tip which enhances accuracy and promotes devastating expansion. The tip raises the ballistic coefficient for faster velocity and also acts as a wedge, initiating bullet expansion. The flat base creates in-flight stability for long-range shooting. Hornady’s swaging process creates precise formation of the core around the tip of the bullet, creating a build-up of energy which contributes to its phenomenal performance.
