Worlds fastest Rimfires

[Biggerhammer]

From what I read it is a standard 17 hmr just juiced up
Do not know where your info on a larger case came from.
Sounds like the round will be on sale in the next couple months.

I'm definitely going to get one for Rockchucks!

“This is not jut a hotter loaded .17 HMR,” Brad said as we drove out to my local range. To prove his point he handed me both an HMR and the new .17 Win. Super Mag. Side by side it was easy to see the difference; it was like comparing a .30-06 to a .300 Winchester Magnum…which in a way is not a bad analogy, just on a smaller scale. “We have a power fastener division of the company…you know, they make cartridges for power nail guns and such. Well, we based this case off of the .27-caliber power fastener case. It gives us more case capacity, can handle higher pressures and ultimately more velocity. Lots more velocity."

So yes it is a new rifle ,I had the info but not all of it.

450fps more is a truck load when your comparing one .17 Rimfire to another!

There's an article on the 17WSM in the February issue of Outdoor Life.

Got a look at the new Win rimfire 17 today at the SHOT show.  If they keep the ammo cost reasonable and a mid price rifle chambered in it, I'll buy one for sure. I'll post up pictures when I get back.

Thanks ,That would be great.On the case it shows it's intended use  = Varmit ,Coyote
Here we go again,Nay Sayers saying it is not enough bullet.I have dropped more than I could count
With my 17HMR. While in Nevada.

I have killed the crap out of varmints with a .22 Magnum prior to me purchasing the .17 HMR when it first came out.  The .17 Win Winchester Super Mag , leaves the .22 Mag in the dust across the board. I like that, I had already sold my .17 HMR stuff and just stuck with the .22 Mag for bare minimum on Rockchucks and point blank Coyotes.
