    Why should I buy a 17HMR?

    Hey team, I’m looking to buy myself a really nice rimfire some time soon. Proper top shelf quality….
    I was just going to go with a .22lr but started to wonder about the .17HMR. Is there any reason I should buy one over the old favourite? Used for rabbits on a mates farm during summer and cleaning up the stacks of possums there in winter.
