Again ANYONE who thinks the 17 HMR cartridge is less lethal than the 22 Magnums simply does NOT have enough trigger time with the 17 HMR

I've killed several deer with lung shots and the 40 gr. Winchester JHP .22 Mags. All went down within 50-125 yards and were dead as a stone when I got to them. I picked the perfectly expanded slugs from under the hide on the off side of the rib cage. Try shooting a few with your 17 HMR and get back to me. I'd be real curious as to your results.
