Questions & Answers
Will this amunition work for a b mag 17 win super mag caliber savage rifle Expert Answer

I would recommend reading the ammunition guidelines in your users manual, as it should work, but it is always good to check with the manufacture.

In your web description you state this is a “magnum “. The ammo box pictured does not indicate “magnum “, Is there a 17HMR magnum and non magnum? Expert Answer

This ammo is Hornady 17 HMR ammo. The HMR in the cartridge name 17 HMR stands for "Hornady Magnum Rimfire". So the magnum is referring to the actual name of the cartridge.

Helpful Positive Review Hornsby .17 HMR by Cobradrvr, July 21, 2022
This is an excellent round for longer distance plinking. I use it primarily for hunting prairie dogs and it is superb in that venue, fast, accurate and flat trajectory. The ballistic tip promotes expansion which provides a good result in small game...

Helpful Positive Review Hornady is always great! by ShooterMcgavin, May 14, 2021
I always get hornady rounds when I can find them. Optics planet is the only place I’ve seen any in a long time. Rimfire is scarce. Get it while you can and while someone has it in stock. Never know when it’ll come back
