But CCI might have the best ling term availability ?

    Is anyone using 20 gr ? I put a17 vs20 gr into a ballistic app and it sad no difference in wind drift . What ?
    Do apps even model 17HMR well ?
    I have found that a decent rifle is not fussy in this calliber. Both17& 20 grn shoot well with only about half inch difference at 100m.Ruger not so much.If you are chasing absolute accuracy,try several different brands,otherwise rabbits cant tell the difference.
    Bagheera and viper like this.
