A screaming little rimfire that’s necked down for a 17 cal spritzer. Looks like a miniature 223. Common varmint round. Deadly at social distances, and very very nasty beyond.

Spitzer, I suppose you could have a spritzer after shooting the bandit.

Is that not also an air rifle caliber?

.17 caliber?....Yep. I bought one in 1963. I was sort of like a .22 with BB caps, but not as powerful. Bought it out of a magazine and learned how to shoot it like a gunslinger. No tin can in the neighbor hood was safe.

It’s an extremely high-velocity rimfire cartridge intended for varmint-hunting.

I think it’s .17HMR (Hornady Magnum Rimfire) ....if it was a pellet rifle it’d be .177 so I’m thinking it’s the rifle.

.17 HMR, a rimfire cartridge derived from a necked down .22 Magnum.

Same caliber as most pump air rifles.

17 HMR,little 20 grain bullet at about 2300fps or so.At close range it would inflict a huge wound.
