Do you have a link for that? I couldn't find any .17 cal XTP bullets on their site at any price....
Sad to say but it went back to regular price. Here is the link INGWE, https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1010925944.[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]
I just ordered me 1000 of them. I was not running low but at that price, the best price I have seen in many years, there was no way that I could not order some more. I am just big of a sucker for a bargain!

Me too! I can now shoot my 17 Remington for the same price as 17 HMR. .03 for the primer, .11 for the powder, and .09 for the bullet = 23 cents a round. Cases I make from 223's.

I ordered some when they were still on sale....but got the basic Ups

I was just wondering about the XTPs...not familiar with them.

It's called old age. I get confused very easily.

Hell it's all good, I have been confused for about 45 years.

Had to keep looking at the post to clarify it was .172 bullets and not the 17 HMR ammo that is loaded with the 20 grain XTP bullet.

If they had 500 rounds of that stuff for $45 I was getting ready to own a schittload!!

Well damn their hides anyway! If they make a 20 gr XTP for the HMR why dont they make it available to reloaders?
Bet it would never hold up to the velocities of a larger .17 centerfire.
XTP's no expansion after about 90 yards - just saying .
I'll take the v- max if it's a close shot - shoot'em in the neck .
