Hey
I am a little rusty on laws pertaining to rifle ammunition since I only have the 17 HMR. I just noticed that CCI came out with FMJ's. Is the 17 HMR FMJ legal in Canada? If not does anyone know who sells it?
 
FMJ's are perfectly legal. Not for big game hunting, but who uses an HMR for big game hinting anyways? It doesn't even meet the minimum calibre.
 
Thanks guys

I am in Mississauga toronto area. I have looked arround for the FMJ's but I havent found anyone carrying them. Than again I am new to the area.

Cheers

Whadda talkin about I once gotta 2000LBS moose with a 17HMR --shot him in the eye bout 600-650 yards ,sounds about right ;)
 
Just bought a box on the weekend. Little fishing tackle store in Brantford.
Don't suppose you want to drive that far.
I was surprised to see them - had heard lots of complaining about the normal bullets being too explosive and hoping for FMJ. But no one is making a big deal about them.

Once caught a moose with a daredevil fishing lure. Hooked'em on his backside.
Unfortunately was fishing only with 8 LB test line. Drag didn't save the day.
