Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Speer TNT hollow point better for varmint hunting?
The Speer TNT (Total Nightmare) hollow point is specifically engineered for rapid, violent expansion upon impact at high velocities. The thin jacket and aggressive hollow point cavity initiate expansion immediately, releasing energy quickly and minimizing the risk of dangerous pass-through. This makes it especially effective on small varmints like prairie dogs and ground squirrels, delivering clean kills without over-penetration.
What rifles are compatible with Federal V-Shok 17 HMR ammunition?
This ammunition is compatible with any firearm chambered in 17 HMR, including popular rifles from Savage, Ruger, CZ, Marlin, and Browning, as well as 17 HMR-chambered revolvers. Always verify your specific firearm is rated for 17 HMR before use, and never attempt to chamber this round in a .17 HMR look-alike caliber such as .17 Mach 2 or .22 WMR.
How does the 17 HMR compare to .22 LR for varmint hunting at distance?
The 17 HMR offers a significant advantage over .22 LR at longer ranges. With a muzzle velocity of 2,530 fps versus approximately 1,200–1,300 fps for standard .22 LR, the 17 HMR shoots much flatter, experiences less wind drift, and retains more energy past 100 yards. This makes it a far superior choice for open-country varmint hunting where shots beyond 75–100 yards are common.
