- The .17 Rem. Fireball is a highly accurate and low recoil cartridge developed by Remington in the early 21st century. It is based on a necked-down .221 Fireball case and uses a bullet measuring just 17 caliber, making it an ideal choice for those seeking the accuracy of a centerfire rifle in the form of an affordable rimfire option.The .17 Rem. Fireball's flat trajectory and excellent ballistics make it an excellent pick for small game hunting as well as target shooting at medium range. Its low recoil also makes it suitable for novice shooters or young children learning to shoot, while its high velocity ensures devastating performance when hunting varmints such as prairie dogs or groundhogs.
