CCI 17 HMR Ammunition - 50 Rounds of 17 Grain VNT

The arrival of the 17 HMR already spelled bad news for small game. Now that CCI is loading a round with a high velocity VNT, the prairie dogs and groundhogs of the world might as well just give up.

This little round is crowned with a 17 grain VNT by Speer. It owes its superb accuracy to its honed and centered polymer tip, as well as its evenly layered jacket which goes so far as to shield its core against hot propellant gasses that could have deformed it. Loaded to an impressive muzzle velocity of 2,650 fps, the VNT doesn’t travel slower than 2,000 fps until just shy of 100 yards. So flat a resultant trajectory makes this round an excellent choice even when all you’re shooting is targets.

But to truly witness all the VNT has to offer, you’ll want to direct it toward a varmint. Instantly following impact the VNT translates nearly all of its available energy into rapid fragmentation of its core and thin jacket, dealing so much damage in the process that your quarry won’t have time to wonder what hit it!

CCI’s own primer sees to reliable ignition, and their meticulously loaded propellant delivers steady ballistics following every shot. CCI’s high quality brass case ought to chamber optimally in any firearm, although the Idahoan manufacturer advises checking to see whether your particular semi-auto is suited for so high velocity a cartridge.
