The 17hmr is a very tame round even at the muzzle it only kicks out 250FT lbf for a 20grain round and 245ft lb for 17grain round. You should try the 17 hornet the smallest 17 hornet is twice as powerful, 20 grain is 3515ft per sec which is 2396mph or 3 times the speed of sound + an additional 100mph 😱😱& 549ft lb of energy those are some crazy stats they do upto 30gr for longer range and if you wanna shoot bigger game but not as fast so the energy does not change that much at the muzzle only down range . Now The ..22hornet might just penetrate its boasts the following figures ( vmax 35Gr 3060ft/s 728ft lbf or the heaviest round at 55Gr 2656ft/s 859 ft ibf) crazy figures right? for something so small I would love to see a video no 2 with those rounds😀. The 223 Remington or the slightly more powerful 5.56 would go through 2 or 3 of those but too easy lol.
Great grouping especially with the 17 and speed always Trump's armor but the 22 mag is a great rifle also they both have more power than most people think how many yards was these shots taken from
Speed & small meplat always dents steel more. Like all tools there's a tool for ever job . Where I shoot pests are on the lager side so I got a Lithgow crossover in 22magnum. I have not used any premium ammo yet just maxi Mags , they work real well on game just not the most accurate at 100 yards. I like our little 22 magnum lever action as a light walkabout rifle with open sights , it does the job on small pigs & goats just fine. I would like to see a 5mm or .20 cal magnum.
@@boce991 ok, interesting to know, but for the following times, you must be sure, That Your NH4NO3 is completely fine powdered and dry and you have the right aluminium powder. Unoxidiced and black should be the best Option
stop lying, this is not thermobaric: a) very low flash b) nitrogen oxide smoke. This explosive was about 2.5 times less powerful than any standard themorbaic or eq. to about 2.5 pounds of true thermobaric explosive (like ETN/AL 75:25)
shooting deer with either is pretty damn crappy I dont care if your grand ma killed a grizzly with a 22short. A quick humane kill is what a real sportsman tries for. A 6mm should be a minimum on white tails .
You can pretty much use 22lr as a deer round actually. Fact: the reason most u.s state officials don't allow 22lr, 22mag or 17hmr for deer is because many poachers use it for their quietness. you can shoot a 22lr from 100 yards away and you can barely hear the pop from the muzzle. back when I visted Mexico, I had the chance to witness 4 white tailed deer hints with CCI minimag hollow point 36gn taking down all four deer over 100 yards. they manage to only run 15 yards before dropping, and all four were over 120lbs. so its possible for a 22lr to take down a nice sized buck, and if you think about it ancient humans would take down huge mammals like wooly mammoths with small spears and arrows.
@@PapaPepeFieri 22lr took down the world record grizzly at the time by a little old Cree lady in Alberta. Still, there should be minimum calibre size for deer and other big game in my opinion.
