Most Helpful Negative Review Not the best 17 hmr
I bought this 20 grain 17 HMR ammo hoping it would group a little better at distance. It grouped the worst out of everything I tested at 100 yds+. Don’t get me wrong, it’s moa ammo. But everything else is sub moa and the 17 grain Hornady groups the best even out to 330 yds. Maybe the hollow point catches too much wind to be pinpoint accurate at distances. I’m sure the terminal performance on this is great, but I wouldn’t use it past 75 yds.

17 hmr ammo not bullets

by Tanman, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on December 16, 2025
Good price;so far great ammo!!!! It’s Hornady of course!!!just a reminder I almost fell for the 100 rd box but buyer beware those are bullets to reload you’re own. So read the description because there is no return. Happy shooting
