It sure does, the 17 Hornet with just the 20gr bullets, has more energy at 200 yards than the 17gr 17HMR does at the muzzle! It seriously is awesome fun!

I cut mine in a line just above the teeth which takes the back of the skull off, allowing easy access to get brains out. Use a pressure washer to get bits off while still hot from the boil.

Rambo working his magic has the groups down to .53. Load is starting to get good. 2850 for 18inch 270 is brilliant. 270, the ultimate caliber, who’d have thought.
