Special Features
- V-Max polymer tipped bullet is engineered for tack driving accuracy and rapid fragmentation at practical varmint shooting velocities, helping deliver dramatic on target effect.
- Match quality brass and carefully selected propellants are used to keep pressure, velocity, and point of impact consistent from shot to shot and lot to lot.
- Every Varmint Express cartridge is hand inspected at the factory to catch cosmetic defects and maintain high quality standards before packaging.
- 17 Mach 2 design offers a flatter trajectory and more energy than typical high velocity 22 LR while still using similar sized actions and magazines in many rimfire platforms.
- Primers and powder are matched to each load to ensure reliable ignition and complete burn, supporting clean shooting in small bore rimfire rifles.
Practical Benefits
- A strong fit for squirrel, rabbit, and small varmint hunting where precise shot placement and rapid on game effect are important.
- Flatter trajectory than 22 LR helps shooters make accurate hits at longer rimfire distances without as much guesswork on holdover.
- Light recoil and explosive terminal performance make this 17 Mach 2 17 grain V-Max load a fun and effective choice for bench shooting, field varminting, and training new varmint shooters.
- Match like brass and consistent components support reliable feeding and accuracy in quality 17 HM2 rifles, adding confidence for serious rimfire varmint work.
- A practical choice for landowners and pest control where a quieter, low recoil rimfire solution is preferred over centerfire varmint cartridges.
Hornady Varmint Express 83177 17 HM2 17 Grain V-Max 50 Round Box is a solid fit for dedicated small game and varmint shooting where flat trajectory, precision, and fast on target effect from a 17 Mach 2 rifle are the priorities.
