17 HMR - 17 Gr or 20 Gr for Accuracy;

[Levi Garrett]

I have tried the 17 gr, Federal premium, and Hornady V-Max (I think thats what they are) , Anyway what shoots best in your rifle. My test with a CZ 452 American , sporter was pretty sweet , well under MOA , and all touching @ 50 meters. Never tried the 20 yet. Any differance noticed.?

20gr is less accurate out of most guns. pretty much everyone who has tried them says they arent as accurate as the 17gr. not sure why but thats the way it is.

in mine groups are about twice as big at 100 yards than with 17gr bullets. still only 1" groups but thats bad for a 17hmr at 100 yards
