30-6 Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 What are the differences between the two types of rounds? Is it just one is more powerful - like subs and magnums in .22's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kip270 Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 Do you mean the .17rem and the .17hmr?? If so the .17rem is a centre fire round and the HMR is a rimmy. The .17rem pushes a 20grain pill around 4000fps, so a very fast round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
