    Fastest Rimfire in the World ...

    It's called the .17 Winchester Super Magnum, and it sets a new standard in rimfire performance by pushing a 20-grain bullet to 3,000 fps and a 25-grain to 2,600 fps.

    Those are the quickest times ever posted by a commercial rimfire cartridge.

    Read the aticle here : .17 Winchester Super Magnum Rimfire Cartridge | Ron Spomer | Gun Blog

    May make the .17HMR Redundant after such a short time. Except for the ammo cost.. Mind you .17 at 39.95 for 50 is still 0.79 per shot.

    My last .223 got down to 0.59 in bulk...
    "This is my Flag... Ill only have the one ..
