Getting ready to purchasing my 1st .22 mag. Looking at a Ruger All American with a Cerakote finish. And 2nd choice would be Savage 92FV with similar Cerakote finish. Reviews I've come across make the Ruger seem promising. I've always been a small caliber guy but in rimfire, the energy @100 yrds is what im most concerned about, and most will group sub 1.25"@100. A person that has owned 6 .22wmr, im curious of thoughts of .22mag vs .17hmr on coyotes, whistle pigs, and HYPOTHETICALLY speaking, a deers head.
@@AR_420- Please watch this again, that CZ 457 is for real, listen to what his grouping were. It may be a tad more $ wise but in the long run it is a rifle to be passed down, not thrown away. All kidding aside, save yourself some grief and get the CZ. I have several, in different calibers and all are fantastic. I could sell these things. Do you hear that CZ?! LOL, cheers...
YEP - GOT 3 OF THEM -- GOT TIRED OF THE ARMADILLOS RUNNING OFF -- BUDDY USES THE 17 BUT ONLY THE FMJ OR THE OTHER 20 GRAINER & HAS KILLED A COUPLE OF 65 LB HOGS WITH IT -- THE 17 GRAINERS ARENT GOT FOR ANYTHING BIGGER THAN A RABBIT -- THE 22 MAG WITH 40 SOLIDS IS A STONE KILLER
Watched a lot of vids comparing these 2 so I knew the .22 would have more power but it seems overall due to bullet design the .17hmr is a bit more accurate . I prefer .22mag overall because you can also run it in a pistol.
I believe 17 hmr is only available in 17 grains, unfortunately. My mistake, upon further research I have found they do in fact offer two other weight options. 15 and 20.
17 HMR for crows and rabbits out to 150 yards. Foxes head shot only out to 75yards. 22 WMR for crows and rabbits out to 125 yards and head shot only foxes to 100 yards. The 22 WMR hits with more effect as it has a higher impact number of bullet weight multiplied by bullet impact energy than the 17 HMR at all ranges. I would like to see you measure the enclosed volume that each bullet makes when hitting a clay block. You would need a bigger or deeper clay block to capture the 22 WMR bullet according to the results from this video. I know that the bullets with more momentum disrupt more tissue than bullets with lower momentum, but it would be nice to "quantify" the results to discover how much better these high moments bullets behave. Bigger animals generally require higher momentum to kill them quickly therefore humanely. Nice video. I think keeping it simple teaches us more as we are not overwhelmed with too many details.
The fact that the 17HMR did NOT exit the clay made me stop and think for a minute... I have an abundance of coyotes in my area, they were really cuttin' up tonight, so I wonder what your opinion might be about using the 17 HMR for coyotes and minimizing any collateral damage to any of my farm critters... Thanks
17hmr with a 17gr bullet will not kill deer or coyote.... 17 hmr with a 20gr. Xtp hornady will kill ... But not like a 22mag... with a Browning or Winchester bullet
The 22WMR has more overall versatility. The 17HMR is more specialized for gophers, prairie dogs, and such. The 17 is safer where ricochet hazard might be a problem around livestock, homes, etc. Enjoyed the vid, thanks for sharing!
Great vid thank you, I had a 17hmr made by Savage bull barrel,at100yd you could cut holes all day,but it is limited ,thoes both are great rounds I like both of them 1:26
@@barackmycat9448 - As I said 75 yards is about max for me, on Coyote. Considering the HMR hits as hard at 100 yards, as a .22LR does at muzzle. Approx. 130 FT/LBS. More than enough to take a coyote down. The HMR is so accurate, it makes the task much more easy to accomplish. I shoot gophers (Richardson ground squirrels), no problem at 100 yards, so a head shot on a Coyote is even easier, just saying.
You need to try the 20gr Game Point by CCI in 17HMR vs a 40gr Hollow Point in 22WMR, they will be the most similar in terms of terminal performance they're both designed to expand and penetrate where as most 17s are designed to go pop!
Agreed. The wmr hits harder (obviously) but the hmr is more accurate (obviously). They each have their own attributes, for sure. That's why you need both, LOL.
First time I ever used a mouth blown predator call, brought in a red fox. Fox was facing me @ 20yds when that 40gr hollow point struck his throat & turned him a complete flip! Also took 2 coyotes with 22mag.
Well they both performed as designed, the 22WMR uses a heavier bullet construction and is probably the perfect 100 yard Coyote rifle and the 17HMR is designed to take the heads off small critters like Rabbits, Squirrels and Prairie Dogs. But both are deadly 😮
Ohhhh, GREAT topic/timing! When I 'Retired' my EDC, Ruger P85 (9mm for those who don't know), for the Ruger 57, ALL my neighbors thought I'd lost my mind. "THAT teensy-tiny little caliber, vs your 9mm?!" was their common retort. Then I showed them via every target-of-opportunity we could obtain (And the refrigerators with their assorted fruits/veggies AND meat (ty Mr. Harrell for that one!), suffered dearly!), up to real gelatin blocks, just how well the 5.7 performs. Got ahold of their Ruger LC Carbine, next, and that's even bettah! You gotta respect weight + velocity! (I'm eyeing a 17HMR for our various ground/tree varmints, next!) Thanks for taking the time (And investing all that time/money/energy) in making and sharing your videos!
Thanks for the comparisons. I appreciate that. I been teetering towards the mag. My pistol shoots the 35 gr vmax 22 mag quite well. 7 inch barrel. Great accuracy at 50 yards. A friend of mine switch from a 223 to 17hmr for groundhogs. Personally I wish the ammo God's would make some 17wsm. I'd prefer the 20gr bullet. I liked the 17 Rem I had with 30gr Bergers. Bottom line, going with the 22 mag and one those Anschutz.
The gods have granted your wish. L o l they do make a seventeen supermag. I bought a box for my savage thinking It was the same old17 hmr .Hornady I believe. But it was developed by winchester.
Kel-Tec have stated that a 40 grain .22 WMR round should reach a velocity of 1230 fps from the 4.3″ barrel of their PMR-30 pistol. This works out to 134.40 ft/lbs of energy. This is a significantly less than the FN Five-seveN USG (4.75″ barrel), which can push a 40 grain bullet at 2009 fps. This works out to 358.57 ft/lbs! Nearly three times as powerful as the .22 WMR. This does not mean that the .22 WMR is not a good cartridge. It simply means that the 5.7mm is optimized to be fired from a pistol, rather than the slower burning .22 WMR loads which are designed to be fired from a rifle.
Be a good video even though my mind is made up, i have hit small game with a 22mag myself and seen a friend hit the same game with his HMR and the 22mag is more effective. The 17hmr is not as forgiving but still does the job, in the end each to thier own.
I have a .22WMR, so not getting the 17HMR. If I were starting anew, ammo availability and cost were be deciders, as well as ease of maintenence. That tiny barrel needs some special equipment, so 22 WMR would still my likely pick. Would think the 17 has a drop edge in the prairie dog town over the 22, but neither is a great wind bucker.
Big fan of the 22 WMR. Mostly shot in convertible Ruger Single six revolvers and very recently got a Bear Creek Arsenal 22 Mag, 20" AR upper. A nice amount of punch for anchoring little critters. The 17 is cool that it gives up it's energy completely in small critters- pink mist....
Awesome comparison! I wonder if the 22mag would have done better/worse as the normal 40 grain weight. 17hmr is more a surgical round vs. 22mag more destructive. Got any CCI TNT varieties?
I owned both a .22 Mag and a .17HMR at the same time. Both Marlin's. I WANTED so badly to love the 17. But test after test in my own back yard....... and hunt after hunt, the ol .22MAG just kept kicking its brass 😄 In the end, the .17HMR eventually found itself a new home. Another GREAT vid bro! 😎
I really like this post. I hav 2:21 e to say that I chose the 22wmr over the 17hmr. When I purchased my way into the 22wmr I chose the Rossi semiautomatic long barrel rifle. I have to say this is a great rifle very accurate and reliable. Just wanted to share this with you all. Oh yeah, I chose the Spear gold dot hollow point for my preferred choice for this peice. I can use it in my sa revolver and rifle as well.
Hello Mr. WHO_TEE_WHO another excellent video showing the difference in energy transfer down range. I tend to agree, close up hunting (inside 100 yards) either cartridge should perform about the same, in as much delivering a one shot kill. However, I believe that at 100yds + that .17HMR may give you a bit more accuracy on small game. That's due to it's lower BC and higher muzzle velocity. I always enjoy your videos keep it them coming please.
Always been a fan of the .22 mag until ammo became hard to find. My old gun is stupid accurate with the Winchester fmj and hp. Finally broke down and got a .17 it doesn't matter what ammo i feed it! The 20 grain groups just a little lower. Starting to warm up to it.
The seventeen h. m. r are zippy little buggers. Definitely one of my favorites. Interesting fact the twenty two magnum It's the smallest cartridge that you can take a white tail with in the state of Maine by law.. Isn't that crazy!
I love the 22 mag alot better than the 17 because if the 17 hits a twig or anything it bust and u are not going to hit your target thanks and love your shows and im from wilkesboro NC my name is Dennis Church
Cloudy days are actually the best days for the chronograph, because the light is diffused and even. Just don't put the sky screens on it when it's cloudy. Did you have to special order the CZ 457? I'd love to get one, but their website doesn't list any dealers in the US. Always cool when you shoot the clay blocks! Thanks for another great video!
very worthwhile but since they didnt splatter the blocks just use HALF whats left to make smaller blocks to show what itll do to a squirrel rather than rabbit
Since I don't own a 17HMR I pick the 22WMR as my favorite LOL. I do own a 17WSM and it is a great round. Would like to see you compare the 17WSM and the 17HMR on clay targets. I think I asked that some time ago but you didn't have a 17WSM. Thank you for these vids!
I have a cz457 in 22lr, running a Athlon scope and timney trigger. It will ragged hole at 50 yards with SK ammo. Went down the rabbit hole due to the Pursuit of Accuracy channel. Since my back yard range is only 50, its a great set up.
I'm an old guy, and I just naturally dance with what brung me to the party , and I've been dancing with the 22 mag for a long time. Nothing wrong with the 17 but it's not mine
Great comparison, and now that we know that the 22 magnum will penetrate deeper, I knew it would, and I regret ever selling my 22mag, how’s about you do the same with the 22, but/and you put a couple water/milk jugs behind the clay to catch the boolot. Thanks for another great video Adam ❤️ from Canada
As far as a favorite I'd have to pick the 1 I own.. I bet you've already done a video on the different damage done to the clay blocks from the 17 hmr but you've peaked my interest because not only does it matter how accurate but it also matters as to how well the perform once they reach their target. I don't think I have any of the Remington stuff I'll have to look and then it not see if I can find some
22 mag for coyotes, 17 hmr for squirrels, and both for a fun day plinking with the family. Each cartridges have a valid purpose but both are just a lot fun.
Depending on what you are wanting out of any bullet you are firing. Look at this, the 17hmr used 100% of it energy in that block. Sometimes that’s what you want.
That was definitely a win for the .22 mag in my book. The entire .22 block was pushed outward compared to the .17 block. It looked like the internal cavity was larger overall with the .22 as well, but may have just been camera angle.

Nice video the 17 could be good at pelt talking because only one hole and massive international damage.
Might be nice to see the 22LR compared to these, hollow point and solid.
22LR is not even the same league
Like to see what the Hornaday 30 gr ballistic tip 22 mag would do. Grew up on 22 mag works on everything up to deer
I far prefer the WMR. What to do with the HMR?

than rabbit

Great comparison, and now that we know that the 22 magnum will penetrate deeper, I knew it would, and I regret ever selling my 22mag, how’s about you do the same with the 22, but/and you put a couple water/milk jugs behind the clay to catch the boolot.
Thanks for another great video Adam

I like the catch idea.
22 magnum has to much energy versus the 17 hmr, 22 mag wins
Would the 17 set off tannerite? Seem fast enough, does the frontal area make a difference?
About half the time it'll set it off in my experience.
My favorite!!! Clay Blocks!!!
Never shot 17hmr, but i have 22mag. I figured with 17hmr traveling faster it would have made it through.
Both are good varmint rds but i like heavier
The CZ Rifle is awesome! I am sure that contributes to it’s power!
I like them both. I'm curious to see what the 17 wsm would do compared to the 22 mag
22 WMR is the bomb! Thanks for your vids!
Thanks for comparing comparable ammo on this video! 22 rem mag is still king! Imo.
I chose 22WMR precisely because of this!
That 22wmr took out that rascal rabbit 😂
ive seen both kill deer but the 22mag is my pick overall
Thanks for the info. I already have a 22 mag. Know I don't really see the need for the 17. Thanks again
I like both i lean more towards 17hmr
Always love 22 - anything. Ingrained from my childhood. Lol
I prefer 22mag my self loved this video my man blowing shit up again dude
As far as a favorite I'd have to pick the 1 I own.. I bet you've already done a video on the different damage done to the clay blocks from the 17 hmr but you've peaked my interest because not only does it matter how accurate but it also matters as to how well the perform once they reach their target.
I don't think I have any of the Remington stuff I'll have to look and then it not see if I can find some
I have both, but I think I like the 22WMR more so than the 17HMR. I guess it is because I like the large calibure rounds, lol. Thanks for sharing.
Anyone else think it would be a great video if there was a pound of Tannerite hidden in a random clay block?
Boom
Never did like the 17
But I do need a 22 mag rifle
Love your videos man
Appreciate you watching
@@WHOTEEWHO you make great videos
Thanks for another cool video. If you ever run across a 17 wsm you should grab it Fastest and most powerful rimfire made.
i own both but grab the 17 most.
22 mag for coyotes, 17 hmr for squirrels, and both for a fun day plinking with the family. Each cartridges have a valid purpose but both are just a lot fun.
Depending on what you are wanting out of any bullet you are firing. Look at this, the 17hmr used 100% of it energy in that block. Sometimes that’s what you want.
17hmr is for me when it comes to hurting.
As a man who owns multiple .22s .22l .22lr and .17hmr.
The .22mag wins in knockdown power within 100 yards.
Try the 17wsm, it's a little more impressive than the Hmr.
Would love to see a 17 hmr vs 17wsm in clay
Love them all plus you can carry a lot of ammo if needed to
The chrono wasn’t accurate for the 22 mag. They are only slightly slower than a .17.
Could you do a larger clay block and dissect the block to find the bullet (or what's left of it) to show us what it looks like?
That was definitely a win for the .22 mag in my book. The entire .22 block was pushed outward compared to the .17 block. It looked like the internal cavity was larger overall with the .22 as well, but may have just been camera angle.
