DMc: I have not killt a Turtle as yet with my 17 HMR but that may happen in the future!
One of my favorite Prairie Dog ranches has a remote stock pond that Turtles have invaded and the ranch owner is miffed because his Catfish don't flourish like they used to.
I have helped him a couple of times with reducing his Turtle population but alas not yet with the 17 HMR.
No "geez" to it the 17 HMR is an all around Varmint rimfire cartridge of the first order!
Long live the 17 HMR.
Hold into the wind
