New Rim fire round by Winchester

Post by Quinc »

The new .17 Winchester Super Magnum

http://www.guns.com/2013/01/03/the-new- ... er-magnum/

With the larger case capacity, .17 Winchester Super Magnum easily outperforms other rimfire cartridges, including .17 Hornady Magnum Rimfire and .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire, by about 30 percent in terms of foot-pounds. Depending on the load, .17 WSM is capable of generating about 400 foot-pounds of force, and can have a muzzle velocity of up to 3,000 feet per second.

I am leaning towards the new .17 hornet round but this has potential.
