- 22lr vs the little step brother the 17 MACH 2 episode 1 is a short video in a 2 video series comparing the 2 calibers against each other. in these videos you will see the clear winner or make up your mind on what is important for you speed or penetration. Rimfire rifles are a blast or lack there of to shoot! Follow along as I try and find clever ways to test these cartridges again one another like an mma fight!

The Mach 2 is a more lethal round compared to the .22lr.
This is due to the fact it is a much faster round despite being a lighter round.
The downside to the Mach 2 is it's price, it's more expensive.
The only reason I have a ton of these rounds is during the ammo crisis, I couldn't find .22's but plenty of Mach 2 and I wanted something to plink with.
I have since made sure that I will never have to worry about ammo shortages again for all my guns.
Shoot a box, buy two, rinse and repeat.
I love 22lr, but after I bought my first 17m2 i started shooting 17m2 75% of the time. They shoot much flatter and hit hard. They are a Lazer beam of death. Plinking gets a 22, hunting gets 17.
Yes 17 Mach 2 is a very cool little round just wish the ammo was a bit less expensive and easier to find. When I can get it I get a few bricks. I don’t personally know anyone else that has one.
So, my question is.... does the 17 mach 2 do less damage to small game than the .22lr? One reason I passed on the .17 HMR is because it apparently does too much damage to the meat if you don't hit exactly where you want (lets say the head).
Where as, if the .17 M2 does the same or less damage to the animal...while being more accurate with higher velocity, sounds like a superior rifle to the .22lr when it comes to shooting small game. What are your thoughts on this?
@@aidanmclean8574 with it having a ballistic tip, it's going to hurt more meat than a 22lr for sure. If I was just squirrel hunting, I'd probably use the 22lr, although I have used the 17m2 as well. Just head shots though with the 17.
17 Mach 2 will do a bit more damage I tested this in one of my 22 vs 17 videos on play doh to see the permanent wound cavity
But almost identical
Hello 👋 I have a question. I just bought a Walther p22ca and I saw this type of ammo and was wondering if my pistol can shoot and cycle with it?
Just wondering is it a 22lr or a 17 Mach 2 pistol this ammo can’t be swapped between the other rifle
@@BROTUNED .22lr and I see well looks like I’ll keep looking thanks 🙏
Where did you. Buy the Bipods
You can get them at www.bipodfactory.com they are awesome
WTF is blurred out on the table?
can't say its in another video
If you like 22’s try the aguila “interceptor 40grain” and aguila “supermaximum hyper velocity 30 grain” you gonna love that 🤘🏼🤘🏼
I'll check it out
Number your pieces! Then there is no question! And do you have any idea of what the decibels per bullet?
I would say about the same as a 17 HMR. It's fairly loud, since it is going far above supersonic.
Why you got such a big scope on a 22?
I shoot a lot of long range with all my rifles so they all have higher end high magnification optics on them. Well the bolt guns do anyways. Semi autos have red dot or low power optics for closer in work like varmint control or more of a tactical style shooting. For the longer range stuff 400 500 yards
If comparing 17hm2 to 22lr it’s only fair to use stingers because that is the case that they used to make the hm2 or Mach 2
That’s true thanks maybe I’ll revisit this in the future
I've been debating on whether I should get a 17m2, 17hmr or 17wsm. I've pretty much convinced myself that I should get a 17hmr just for the ammo availability alone. I've never seen 17m2 in any local places. I rarely see 17wsm but I have seen 17hmr in nearly all the local stores (that sell ammo of course.) The same seems to hold true for online.
ya definetly Hm2 is getting hard to find locally if I see it I buy a bunch but to me now its more of a novelty.
@BROTUNED no not anymore they are spitting them out left and right. This lil Savage 17Mach 2 is catching on and becoming everyone's go to rifle. It's taking over the 22 rifle now.
Im in the process of doing some testing comparing the two through different barriers, and also if the hollowpoints of both will open. Comparing out of semiauto platforms though, so hopefully my result data is consistent.
Are you going to post a video on here I’d be interested in seeing it if you do
@@BROTUNED i keep saying im gonna, but this was setup to do knifemaking and damascus steel videos. I may just upload all the 3d 2a stuff instead. Itd probably do better anyways. If not, i can shoot my reddit and twitter info to you. Youd prolly like the 17m2 build. Its an AR-Pistol. Ive never seen one before, so i had to make one.
Yes that’s super cool I’ll definitely check it out
@@BROTUNED i followed you on insta and fb... if you want, ill dm you some progress shots. This 17m2 is a round im gonna be using in a lot of builds. Ive made enough barrel for 3 total, and the one is a drop in unit for any AR upper. I have a lot of wild plans for this little round.
Its hard to find anyone familiar with it, so im really glad youre into shooting it.
Ya it’s something you don’t see very often so I had to have it. My main insta is Ringet421 that’s the account I use all the time and would be the best way to get a hold of me on there
Shot a squrriel at 85 yards with my mach2 using 17hmr aim Vmax. Definitely more punch.
Oh ya up close the little.17 shines
Good video
Thanks I made a couple going to be uploaded every Saturday at 7pm. I enjoy making these types of videos and I’m glad to hear you enjoyed it.
Thanks again!
My dad loves his savage 17
It’s a very neat caliber. Accurate also I finally found ammo for it so it will be in a lot of new videos in the future. Thanks again and have a great day!
Nice hat bud
I gave a few new rimfires in the collection now some videos to come
32 grain 22lr is more powerful
