17 hmr max range???

[Rubikahn]

How far would a 17hmr be good for target shooting? would it be OK up to 200 yrds?

200 is fine, 300 is pushing it. It goes subsonic around 250 yards

200+- Yards is the limit for quasi-accurate shoot placement depending on skill and rifle quality. I used to hit Pop cans out to 350 Yards. Not on the first shot but I would be able to walk it in and once I got the line, I would be able to hit the can 4-6 times out of 10

I've taken gophers at 200M with it, but it's not always easy...

17hmr

I shoot paper tartets and interactive targets out to about 200yds and it is fun. I actually do most of my shooting with this gun @ 100 Meters

My .22 I prefer 50yds, and 60 Metes.

Regardless it packs a hell of a punch for a little round. Just make sure there is little cross wind!

200 for tagets should be fine, the wind will play with your mind at that range but it will work. I have shot my 22 flipper target (the one with 5, 1.5" disks)with my hmr @ 100 it is way too easy, 150 it starts to get fun.

The tough part is the wind....200 is fine....I take gophers at 200 with mine, so it is possible. Out past 250 is has to be dead calm or you will pull your hair out.
