Thread: 17 Hornet. Thoughts?

Awesome video GWH!!!

While I don't personally own a 17HH, I have the original wildcat 17Ackley Hornet which the commercial 17HH was based off. As mentioned above in a number of threads it is a wonderful wee cartridge to use. It is more effective than the 17HMR but still usable in built up areas where a larger capacity centrefire may be a bit too much gun. As in the above video, I would recommend a moderator on your rifle as while quieter than an unmoderated 223, they obviously are still pretty hard on your ears.

You have inspired me to get the Cooper 17AH out and go for a wonder GWH!

Good luck if you go down this road JohnQT. While not knocking any of the brands, the Anschutz would be my pick with the CZ a close second.
