17HMR is perfect for rodents like ground squirrels, tree squirrels, prairie dogs and rabbits. At 100 yards and under it’s explosive. I have killed ground squirrels at 200 yards with it. It shoots flat thanks to it’s high ballistic coefficient and velocity. I hardly ever use my 22LR and 22Mags now that I have my 17HMR.
