Developed by Hornady in 2004, the .17 HM2 round was created to give varmint hunters a high-velocity rimfire cartridge that fits in standard rimfire-length actions. With a selection of V-Max or NTX bullets, the .17 HM2 is capable of taking prairie dogs, coyote and fox-size game at ranges of up to 200 yards.
