- The .17 Remington is a short-length cartridge developed by the Remington Arms Company in 1971. It is based on a necked-down .223 Remington case and uses a .172 caliber bullet, making it an ideal choice for those looking for small-caliber performance with minimal recoil.The .17 Rem's efficient ballistics allow it to maintain flat trajectories and impressive retained energy levels at further ranges. This makes it great for shooters who want to take down varmint-sized game such as groundhogs or prairie dogs with precision accuracy at extended distances. Its low recoil also makes it suitable for novice shooters learning how to shoot, while its high velocity ensures quick, clean kills when needed.
