What happened to 17WSM ammo????

[Okie4570]

So, how does the 17 WSM compare to the 17 Hornet or Remington, that can be reloaded?

The hornet is about 600+fps faster than the WSM and the 17 Rem is about 1000+fps than the WSM.

The WSM is 450fps faster than the HMR.

The hornet is about 600+fps faster than the WSM and the 17 Rem is about 1000+fps than the WSM.

The WSM is 450fps faster than the HMR.

So no real advantage if you reload then.

There is no comparison between HMR and WSM. 20gr is 2350 vs 3000fps, which is significantly noticeable in performance as far as trajectory and Devastation on impact for appropriate sized stuff.

And before this issue 17 WSM was around $15 for 50 rounds so it was cheap to shoot for that kind of performance.

17 Rem is an awesome underrated round imo.

I’ve got 2 boxes somewhere and I don’t own a rifle in that caliber.

Yes!Yes!Yes!
I agree. I have one and it’s a hoot to shoot.

Then why are you here and not looking in the classifieds for a rifle??

Maybe it’s his unofficial WTS ad?
