    17 HMR for crows and rabbits out to 150 yards. Foxes head shot only out to 75yards. 22 WMR for crows and rabbits out to 125 yards and head shot only foxes to 100 yards. The 22 WMR hits with more effect as it has a higher impact number of bullet weight multiplied by bullet impact energy than the 17 HMR at all ranges. I would like to see you measure the enclosed volume that each bullet makes when hitting a clay block. You would need a bigger or deeper clay block to capture the 22 WMR bullet according to the results from this video. I know that the bullets with more momentum disrupt more tissue than bullets with lower momentum, but it would be nice to "quantify" the results to discover how much better these high moments bullets behave. Bigger animals generally require higher momentum to kill them quickly therefore humanely.
    Nice video. I think keeping it simple teaches us more as we are not overwhelmed with too many details.

    Ohhhh, GREAT topic/timing!
    When I 'Retired' my EDC, Ruger P85 (9mm for those who don't know), for the Ruger 57, ALL my neighbors thought I'd lost my mind. "THAT teensy-tiny little caliber, vs your 9mm?!" was their common retort.
    Then I showed them via every target-of-opportunity we could obtain (And the refrigerators with their assorted fruits/veggies AND meat (ty Mr. Harrell for that one!), suffered dearly!), up to real gelatin blocks, just how well the 5.7 performs.
    Got ahold of their Ruger LC Carbine, next, and that's even bettah!
    You gotta respect weight + velocity!
    (I'm eyeing a 17HMR for our various ground/tree varmints, next!)
    Thanks for taking the time (And investing all that time/money/energy) in making and sharing your videos!

      Getting ready to purchasing my 1st .22 mag. Looking at a Ruger All American with a Cerakote finish. And 2nd choice would be Savage 92FV with similar Cerakote finish. Reviews I've come across make the Ruger seem promising. I've always been a small caliber guy but in rimfire, the energy @100 yrds is what im most concerned about, and most will group sub 1.25"@100.

I shoot gophers (Richardson ground squirrels), no problem at 100 yards, so a head shot on a Coyote is even easier, just saying.

A friend of mine switch from a 223 to 17hmr for groundhogs. Personally I wish the ammo God's would make some 17wsm. I'd prefer the 20gr bullet. I liked the 17 Rem I had with 30gr Bergers.

    Hello Mr. WHO_TEE_WHO another excellent video showing the difference in energy transfer down range. I tend to agree, close up hunting (inside 100 yards) either cartridge should perform about the same, in as much delivering a one shot kill. However, I believe that at 100yds + that .17HMR may give you a bit more accuracy on small game. That's due to it's lower BC and higher muzzle velocity. I always enjoy your videos keep it them coming please.

    Kel-Tec have stated that a 40 grain .22 WMR round should reach a velocity of 1230 fps from the 4.3″ barrel of their PMR-30 pistol. This works out to 134.40 ft/lbs of energy.
    This is a significantly less than the FN Five-seveN USG (4.75″ barrel), which can push a 40 grain bullet at 2009 fps. This works out to 358.57 ft/lbs! Nearly three times as powerful as the .22 WMR.
    This does not mean that the .22 WMR is not a good cartridge. It simply means that the 5.7mm is optimized to be fired from a pistol, rather than the slower burning .22 WMR loads which are designed to be fired from a rifle.

    22 h r is still superior to the .17 but there fun the consistency of the 17 is probably better

    Great comparison, and now that we know that the 22 magnum will penetrate deeper, I knew it would, and I regret ever selling my 22mag, how’s about you do the same with the 22, but/and you put a couple water/milk jugs behind the clay to catch the boolot.
    Thanks for another great video Adam

    Excellent video WTW! I think the .17 is just too small vs the .22 mag. BTW, what is that holster that you're wearing in the video?

    I enjoy your vids and liked this comparison. I would enjoy seeing the same, but including the 5mm Remington Magnum rimfire. I have been shooting one for years and in my opinion and experience, the 5mm far exceeds the ability of the 17 and 22 WMR. I look forward to the video! Keep up the great work!

    I have a marlin 22 mag with a very heavy barrel in stainless i bought for $210 back in 92. It has taken literally thousands of varmmit including jack rabbits fox coyotes pigs raccoon and exotics in west Texas. Has an old style red field tv view 3x9 scope that hasn’t been touched in 30 years. If i had only one gun to choose from out of my 35 or so guns this 22mag would be my choice. Been through everything and has never failed once or ever been knocked of sight. One heck of a good gun and a blast to shoot !

    I have a cz457 in 22lr, running a Athlon scope and timney trigger. It will ragged hole at 50 yards with SK ammo. Went down the rabbit hole due to the Pursuit of Accuracy channel. Since my back yard range is only 50, its a great set up.

  • @jarrettboston1
    @jarrettboston1 6 місяців тому

    Depending on what you are wanting out of any bullet you are firing. Look at this, the 17hmr used 100% of it energy in that block. Sometimes that’s what you want.

    As a man who owns multiple .22s .22l .22lr and .17hmr.
    The .22mag wins in knockdown power within 100 yards.

  • @cervus-venator
    @cervus-venator 9 місяців тому +1

    I have both, but I think I like the 22WMR more so than the 17HMR. I guess it is because I like the large calibure rounds, lol. Thanks for sharing.

  • @grenobel
    @grenobel 5 місяців тому

    That was definitely a win for the .22 mag in my book. The entire .22 block was pushed outward compared to the .17 block. It looked like the internal cavity was larger overall with the .22 as well, but may have just been camera angle.

  • @markpitre4257
