Hornady 17 HMR 20 Grain XTP ammunition delivers purpose-built precision for varmint and predator hunting. This rimfire cartridge fires a 20-grain hollow point projectile at 2,375 feet per second, combining flat trajectory with consistent accuracy on small to medium game including prairie dogs, coyotes, and foxes. The 50-round box format makes it practical for extended range sessions or field work where shot placement demands reliability.
The XTP (eXtreme Terminal Performance) bullet design ensures rapid, dramatic expansion on impact while maintaining velocity downrange. At 2,375 feet per second, the 17 HMR cartridge generates minimal recoil and wind drift compared to centerfire varmint loads, allowing shooters to maintain target focus through follow-up shots and extend effective range in open-country hunting scenarios. The 20-grain bullet weight strikes the balance between velocity and structural integrity needed for consistent terminal performance across typical varmint game.
Operators and serious hunters running bolt-action or semiautomatic 17 HMR rifles value this ammunition for its tack-driving accuracy and repeatable ballistics. The cartridge performs effectively out to 200 yards under field conditions, making it the preferred choice for shooters working prairie dog colonies, ground squirrel operations, or predator calling where precision matters and collateral damage must be minimized. Hornady's quality control ensures consistent velocity and reliability across the 50-round box, supporting the shot discipline required in varmint hunting where every round counts.
