When you take a powerful bolt-action rifle and chamber it for one of the fastest cartridges ever made, the result is unparalleled ballistics. .17 Hornady Magnum Rimfire (HMR) rifles fire rounds with lightweight bullets at a blistering 2500 fps on a flat trajectory, ensuring fantastic performance over long ranges. Find your .17 HMR gun for taking down coyotes, prairie dogs, and other pests and varmints here at Sportsman's Outdoor Superstore.
The .17 HMR cartridge was the product of wildcatter experimentation. These hobbyists were trying to create a cartridge that fired at a flat trajectory and could match the out-of-production 5mm Remington round in speed and stopping power. It's safe to say they succeeded.
And what better platform to take advantage of its superior ballistics and accuracy than the bolt-action rifle? The minimal moving parts, tight tolerances, and long barrels of .17 HMR bolt-action rifles ensure this incredible cartridge is fired as fast and accurately as possible. It's the ultimate varmint-hunting weapon, especially over long distances.

The .17 HMR was designed for speed and long-range accuracy. Use case was a secondary concern. This caliber is too light to take down a whitetail, so it's mostly used for guns that take down small game like varmints.
.17 HMR rifles can shoot far, but if you want to take down a critter, you'll want to do it within 200 yards. While that might sound lackluster, it's still much farther than many other hunting rifles (which have effective ranges of around 100-150 yards). Any farther than that and the bullet won't have enough velocity for an ethical kill.
As we do not have an FFL, we cannot send weapons directly to our customers' homes. Instead, we can send them to your local FFL dealer. When it arrives, you can pick it up from them. Make sure to ask the staff if they are willing to receive a package for you before you order.
