I learned about this caliber after I bought a .17 Mach IV.. I love what this round does.. unfortunately mine can only use 25gr as a max.. Still nails them, but nothing like that predator does..
@Burgeezy Why??? If you have a hard time "buying" that a case the size of the Predator can zip a 30 grain bullet at 4100+, what you really should be "buying" is a clue. Because you obviously lack one...
@DaveAffleck Well what you're talking about is a .223 case shooting a .17 round. I suppose it could be possible but I'd love to know how you measured the speed. The only thing I find online about this round is on Squidoo by you ironically. HMR .17 rounds are in the 2500 FPS range. You're talking about adding like 75% to this by changing the case size. I don’t buy it....I'd have to see paperwork from an independent testing to prove this. A 22-50 would be more practical.
@Burgeezy Says the guy that, 3 days ago, liked and favorited the dance scenes from Dirty Dancing. Sure buddy I'm the fag, whatever helps you sleep at night.
There is absolutely no debate that the .17-223 AI chucks 30 grainers well over 4k fps. You are an idiot if you can't see why or at the very least estimate its performance relative to other similar cartridges.
Also please explain how burning 30% more powder in a .22-250 is more "practical" for calling in and shooting Coyotes.
@K2Carbides OK troll...you caught me I enjoy classic movies like Dirty Dancing and Pretty Woman. If that defines me as gay so be it.
I can assume its possible based on FPS of similar cartridges however the grain of bullet is heavier and only in the 3500 FPS range. So to drop 20 grain will that make up the difference I dont know.
Its more practical because you can have 4000 FPS with a 40-50 grain bullet. This leads to higher muzzle energy. That is where its at. 22-250 = 'yote killer
@Burgeezy And a 6mm Remington has even more energy and effective range. So fucking what? What does any of that have to do with calling in and shooting coyotes at a couple hundred yards? That is, aside from being a waste of powder.
I think you need to watch the video again. I've shot a coyote with a 7mm rem mag, it wasn't any more dead.
@K2Carbides The .17 round is not ideal for coyote hunting. Its suited for smaller animals like rabbits and squirels. Ideally its not the best round for larger game. So to go through the hassle of making a special higher powered .17 just to kill a coyote is sorta lame to me. Just get a bigger gun when you want to shoot larger game. Like if you want a fast car get a big engine...stop trying sqeeze the piss out of a 4 banger.
@Burgeezy "The making a special higher powered .17..." is half the fun
The sectional density of a .172 30 grain is higher than 40 and 50 grain .224s. Giving it great penetration. You ever seen a coyote? They're like 30 lbs. The min power level for even 40 lb garbage dump feeding coyotes is 300ft-lbs. The .17 Pred is above that just beyond 400 yards. More power is not necessary. It's a perfect cartridge for coyote and any smaller varmint.
@K2Carbides I'm all about modifications to make things cooler. I'm just thinking this gun would explode smaller animals like squirrel and rabbit. I want the Savage HMR .17 but I dont know if I'll attempt any coyote hunting with it. Here in the Chicago are the Coyotes we have are like the size of a large German Sheppard. For sure nothing like the 30lb animals you mention. I'm torn between the .17 and the 22-250. One seems not good enough for big game, the other too big for small game.
@Burgeezy dude dont worry the 17 can and will kill coyotes and wolfs with the 20 grain xtp load under 125 yards the load will penetrate 18'' of meat i have been using the 17 hmr since it has come out and stucvk with it i have killed varmints and coyotes and other fur bearing animals into the thousands and the 17 hmr will take them all and do it more accuratly than a 22 lr or 22 at any practical rimfire range and then some. again 20 grain loads only.
Nice job and thank you for helping keep coyote population down. I actually own chickens myself and coyotes and foxes are big problems if they can get to them theyll kill every last one of them.
@AlessioDAlessandro "Well documented scientific studies have proven that killing coyotes disrupts their social structure leading to large sudden increases in their populations as any left in an area quickly fill the gap by having much larger litters"--
well documented scientific studies seem to indicate hunters ought to shoot more coyotes.
No, it was a very clean shot, in the shoulder, not the leg. Bullet smashed the shoulder, penetrated into the chest cavity and both lungs were totally destroyed. It was dead within seconds. No follow up shot needed.
@DaveAffleck it was dead instantly. They just do that when they die. Especially when you shoulder punch them like that. Nice shot. I shoot a 17 remington. good caliber for under 300 yrds :)
@TheXlrenio there is a lot of Coyotes all over Utah there is some very good coyotes all around St. George that i have had a lot of luck with and then at the northern part by Snowville there is some really good Coyote hunting out there too
@AlessioDAlessandro well I guess we have to agree to disagree. I really dont think nature could balance its self. It would be total chaos and loss of some species would definetly happen, or there would be wide spread disease killing a lot of animals that would spread to livestock. Take care man, you seam like an ok guy. For the most part we've agrued this without being rude to each other.
@AlessioDAlessandro I think people that only hunt horns are wrong. So Im with you there. I hunt because its enjoyable to me, and I would rather eat wild game than store bought hormone induced meats. Killing a deer for the freezer is no different than killing a cow if you're eating it. In most cases it costs me more money to hunt, but i do it because thats what I love. Its respect for the animal. What is wrong with church? Its ok if you are not a believer but you shouldnt bash people.
@AlessioDAlessandro Dont get me wrong, there are people that hunt for the wrong reasons. However killing coyotes to help other animal populations is conservation. Killing coyotes in my home state is what brought the wild turkey population back up. Killing Mountain Lions in AZ where I live now helps the deer population. Killing an albino deer where legal would only benefit the herd, they have bad immune systems and would effect the health of other deer. You can eat them still.
@AlessioDAlessandro you have still not said one thing that has anything to do with conservation. There is a limit to the amount of animals we are allowed to take. Like deer, turkey etc. However right now the coyote population is out of control, so you're allowed to shoot as many as you want for the time being. What is wrong with this? Its ok that its not what you like to do, but if someone wants to what reason do you have to tell them no? Thats all Im asking. It helps wildlife to regulate.
@AlessioDAlessandro You still havent said one thing that would benefit wildlife like hunting does. Its ok though, you probably dont have the education to understand what hunting really does for wildlife. You only see a cute animal getting killed, but what you dont see is conservation. Not a problem, some people understand, and some dont The good thing is the people that matter are the ones that understand.
@AlessioDAlessandro why do you watch these videos if you dont like hunting? I mean you probably dont do one thing to help wildlife, atleast hunters put tons of money into it, and we're the reason there are so many animals today. Remember that in the US it is a regulated sport. Coyotes are unlimited in many states for a reason, they need them to be thinned out. To many coyotes hurt other game numbers. This is best for everyone, other animals and people. Nature was not handling the ecosystem.
How far depends on "which" .17. I killed one with this .17 at over 600 yards once. But 400 yards would be a more realistic limit. The load I'm using still has 500 ft/lb's of energy left at 400 yards. You guys need to realize, this is NOT a .17 HMR. Or even a .17 Rem. It's a wildcat cartridge that pushes 30 gr. bullets at 4100 fps.
@DaveAffleck Is it a rimfire? If so how the heck do you wildcat it? Seems like a pretty impressive round! I have a new 17 HMR I intend to hunt the yotes with but I'm worried about killing potential, I insist these DRT. Do you think my rifle will do the trick? I can do my part, no worries. Or should I stick to a slightly larger round, say my 9mm carbine, 6.5 Carcano, or SKS?
well it will do fine if you dont hit very much bone. 17 hmr bullets are meant to fragment in light skinned animals and if they hit a solid surface they will shatter. so the shoulder bone might be a problem there
@Rabiesthecat Is it a rimfire? If so how the heck do you wildcat it? Seems like a pretty impressive round! I have a new 17 HMR I intend to hunt the yotes with but I'm worried about killing potential, I insist these DRT. Do you think my rifle will do the trick? I can do my part, no worries. Or should I stick to a slightly larger round, say my 9mm carbine, 6.5 Carcano, or SKS?
Greetings from Minnesota!....Sweet shot on that yote!. Coyote hunting is better than deer hunting in my opinion....I shot a savage 22-250 with 55gr Winchester silver ballistic tips....They have no chance out to 300yrds. Open season on yotes here with no bag limit!....Kill them deer eating bastards!
yote hunting is legal in most states. in Oregon, where i live, they are under the 'non protected animals' meaning you can shoot them year round with no bag limit. you do have to have a state hunting license though. some places are so over populated that there is actually a bounty out for them. FUN TO SHOOT!
coyote hunting in saskatchewan is legal and there a huge problem with livestock if they get to a starving point... mosly they attack smaller animals and pets
@BrutalDeluxe80 oh yeah they kill everything they can get there hands on. i know in georgia you can hunt coyotes year round and kill as many as you can
AlessioDAlessandro for somebody who defends animals dont you think that is hypocritical to wish that on children. Claim love but you spew hate, makes you look real pathetic.
HaHaHaHa! Such loving humanitarians you antis are, LOL! I can't imagine how much it must suck to go through life with that kind of outlook. I hope your children live long, productive, happy lives! Heck, I even hope YOU learn to be happy some day.
if you read what you said, you would know you said "I don't believe there are any factory .17 caliber centerfire rifles", i said, yes there is. You didnt say anything about semi autos.
If you read the question above, that I was answering, you will see he was asking about semi-autos. Trust me, I know all about the .17 Rem. and the .17 Fireball. I've been shooting both of them for decades - and yes, the Fireball has existed that long, known as the .17 Mach IV.
Quick, help the poor doggie! While your there, is there a better/easier .17 to buy, Im thinking of getting one but not sure about having to form cases etc, although it sounds like fun.
I've never had any problem making clean kills on coyotes with a .17 caliber centerfire. Check out some of my other vids and you'll see about 40 clean kills with a .17. I wouldn't use a .17 HMR though, if that's what you are asking.
you, my friend, is incredibly judgmental...its probably useless that i say this b/c u probly wont listen but I care about being a good steward of the land and MY VIDEO WOULD LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME...can u read what im saying for the sencond time?...MY VIDEO WOULD LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME!...i swear, ur just making urself appear very ignorant...truly no offense intended, just the picture your sending out...o and wool is not used as the sole fabric in alot of clothes but often a complementary fabric
how can u assume they dont care..i care about freezing kids & my video would look just the same so how can u make that assumption? & i like how u make it sound so detached..more sheep for example means more wool, which means more wool blankets for ex..which means more of those blankets 4 the world..& dont pull some crap and say "wull where are the balnkets goin??" thats another argument...just keep on tryin my friend...again tho, we live only by virtue of taking from the eco system...accept it
was i talkin about those other animals...no...take note of my "ENDNOTE" in one of my comments...i said modifying the eco system too much is bad but that isnt the case here for coyotes...if we lived by ur principles and didnt do anything to eco system, we'd all die b/c the fact is we live off of what we take from the eco system whether it be plants, animals, etc...i think deep down u kno that
also..sheeps provide wool for freezing kids...& when our nations ag. industry is so critical..every little bit helps...and for the last time, we are not hurting the coyote species as a result...man i bet the state of Iowa is disgraced to have such a anti-ag./food & clothing person from their good state. ENDNOTE: modifying the environment 2 much is bad, yes, but we arent doin it too much here so ur wrong...we are actually controlling it from gettin out of hand..keeping the population stable, etc.
man u avioded the heck outta that question lol...i personally have friends that rent land from my family's farm & have been willing to hire extra hands as sheep "guards" over night b/c they've been losing approx. 20% of their sheep annually...thats an incredible percentage...its enough to put ppl out of business if they dont horizontally integrate...also, if anything the over-pop of coyotes is hurting the eco-sys..we arent altering the eco. sys. we are controlling it...o&coyotes kill calves 2
1st of all...they aren't these harmless little innocent animals u claim...cannot u not get it that they are a BIG problem when it comes to eating the living daylights out of sheep, etc??...second: they are animals, NOT HUMANS...we are not murdering ppl here, we are simply controlling an over-populated predatory animal that is killing off alot of sheep, etc. and ultimately not exactly helping our CRITICAL, much needed Ag. industry (u kno that stuff that feeds starving kids..starving HUMANS)
@user0707 Don't forget the fact these things are dangerous to humans, especially when they get rabies, and are quite adept at spreading mange and lime disease.
i don't belive that the cayote went through pain, well it did it was just so overwelming he didn't feel it, kinda like when you get a bad fivestar it hurts but not right away cause since you get it from surprise its more of a shock.
Hey Iowa why don't you sit yourself down in a room with a couple of rabid coyotes, ohh sorry little doggies and see if there as nice as you seem to think?
A PEST IS A PEST IS A PEST! Its common knowlage that framers/ranchers have the right do protect there shit, animals or other wise its no different as if it was a wolve, badger, bear......ect oh and the last time i checked the coyote was not on the endangerd species list. Also there are such things as hunting seasons and there is a coyote season. Dave was in the right so until you have somthing relevent to add to the conversation calm down.
Yes. The more you reveal about your lack of understanding or even willingness to understand the world around you, the more you reveal your bigotry, hatred and lack of tolerance, yes the more I pity you.
The world is full of unhappy people just like you though. Unfortunately, there is nothing I can do to help you.
Hopefully, you'll eventually find some self esteem and inner peace. With that will come understanding, and tolerance for that which you can't understand.
Iowa do you have any idea what your talking about, it's not a dog it's a fucking coyote and in many states there a huge problem for framers and ranchers, and are allowd to be hunted. maybe you should just go huge a tree or drive your hybrid off a cliff.
The more you say, the less informed and clueless you sound. You have not absolutely no valid insight into my lifestyle. None. Your utter, complete ignorance and total lack of tolerance for anything outside your own belief system reveals far more than you realize.
You have been somewhat amusing, but really, at this point, I'm just starting to feel pity for you.
Keep going if you want, doesn't matter to me. But you ought to try and improve your self esteem in more constructive ways.
Even in the string of animal murder videos making it to youtube, this is one of the absolute sickest. This is how you get your jollies? Using an innocent animals instincts to live so you can murder it?
Why don't you spend a lot more of your time and energy trying to devise novel ways to torment and kill 35 pound dogs. Then post a video on the internet that captures the fruits of your pathetic, twisted excuse for manhood.
Are you seriously spending your Saturday night looking for videos on youtube? Even if you were looking for ones you like, I'd make fun of you. But looking for ones you hate?
It must suck more than words can describe to be you...
Calling me a coward, over the internet, doesn't exactly hurt my feelings. Actually, nothing you can post here can hurt my feelings. You just make me laugh.
Come back next weekend and spend your Fri. and Sat. night trying to insult me some more!
just... next time you have a thought... let it go ... before you get online next time make sure you have yourself a nice warm cup of some shut the fuck up! they're nowere near extinct, or even scarce... they're fuckin everywere in the area... it's a male btw..
is this a standard .17hmr? Please get back to me, I want to get a .17hmr for coyotes but everyone keeps doubting it

It is pretty loud. And it is a .17.

are you using the .17 Remington Fireball?
Rabiesthecat 1 year ago
No, it's a .17 caliber wildcat with more capacity than the .17 Remington. Quite a bit more capacity and velocity than the Fireball.
DaveAffleck 1 year ago
@DaveAffleck Is it a rimfire? If so how the heck do you wildcat it? Seems like a pretty impressive round! I have a new 17 HMR I intend to hunt the yotes with but I'm worried about killing potential, I insist these DRT. Do you think my rifle will do the trick? I can do my part, no worries. Or should I stick to a slightly larger round, say my 9mm carbine, 6.5 Carcano, or SKS?
Paganwarrior2000 1 year ago
well it will do fine if you dont hit very much bone. 17 hmr bullets are meant to fragment in light skinned animals and if they hit a solid surface they will shatter. so the shoulder bone might be a problem there
PBgobluedevilsJJ 1 year ago
@PBgobluedevilsJJ Okay thanks. I'll probably stick with a heavier bullet, just to be safe.

dieselracer2010 1 year ago
@dieselracer2010 To get a rifle to shoot this wildcat, the .17 Predator, you have to pay a riflesmith to custom make one for you.

Greetings from Minnesota!....Sweet shot on that yote!. Coyote hunting is better than deer hunting in my opinion....I shot a savage 22-250 with 55gr Winchester silver ballistic tips....They have no chance out to 300yrds. Open season on yotes here with no bag limit!....Kill them deer eating bastards!

yote hunting is legal in most states. in Oregon, where i live, they are under the 'non protected animals' meaning you can shoot them year round with no bag limit. you do have to have a state hunting license though. some places are so over populated that there is actually a bounty out for them. FUN TO SHOOT!

If you read the question above, that I was answering, you will see he was asking about semi-autos. Trust me, I know all about the .17 Rem. and the .17 Fireball. I've been shooting both of them for decades - and yes, the Fireball has existed that long, known as the .17 Mach IV.

Sure. Just get a .17 Remington. Readily available in factory form, with factory ammo on the shelf. Only gives up about 200 fps to what I'm using.

I've never had any problem making clean kills on coyotes with a .17 caliber centerfire. Check out some of my other vids and you'll see about 40 clean kills with a .17. I wouldn't use a .17 HMR though, if that's what you are asking.

you, my friend, is incredibly judgmental...its probably useless that i say this b/c u probly wont listen but I care about being a good steward of the land and MY VIDEO WOULD LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME...can u read what im saying for the sencond time?...MY VIDEO WOULD LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME!...i swear, ur just making urself appear very ignorant...truly no offense intended, just the picture your sending out...o and wool is not used as the sole fabric in alot of clothes but often a complementary fabric
user0707 4 years ago
how can u assume they dont care..i care about freezing kids & my video would look just the same so how can u make that assumption? & i like how u make it sound so detached..more sheep for example means more wool, which means more wool blankets for ex..which means more of those blankets 4 the world..& dont pull some crap and say "wull where are the balnkets goin??" thats another argument...just keep on tryin my friend...again tho, we live only by virtue of taking from the eco system...accept it
user0707 4 years ago
was i talkin about those other animals...no...take note of my "ENDNOTE" in one of my comments...i said modifying the eco system too much is bad but that isnt the case here for coyotes...if we lived by ur principles and didnt do anything to eco system, we'd all die b/c the fact is we live off of what we take from the eco system whether it be plants, animals, etc...i think deep down u kno that
user0707 4 years ago
also..sheeps provide wool for freezing kids...& when our nations ag. industry is so critical..every little bit helps...and for the last time, we are not hurting the coyote species as a result...man i bet the state of Iowa is disgraced to have such a anti-ag./food & clothing person from their good state. ENDNOTE: modifying the environment 2 much is bad, yes, but we arent doin it too much here so ur wrong...we are actually controlling it from gettin out of hand..keeping the population stable, etc.
user0707 4 years ago
man u avioded the heck outta that question lol...i personally have friends that rent land from my family's farm & have been willing to hire extra hands as sheep "guards" over night b/c they've been losing approx. 20% of their sheep annually...thats an incredible percentage...its enough to put ppl out of business if they dont horizontally integrate...also, if anything the over-pop of coyotes is hurting the eco-sys..we arent altering the eco. sys. we are controlling it...o&coyotes kill calves 2
user0707 4 years ago 2
1st of all...they aren't these harmless little innocent animals u claim...cannot u not get it that they are a BIG problem when it comes to eating the living daylights out of sheep, etc??...second: they are animals, NOT HUMANS...we are not murdering ppl here, we are simply controlling an over-populated predatory animal that is killing off alot of sheep, etc. and ultimately not exactly helping our CRITICAL, much needed Ag. industry (u kno that stuff that feeds starving kids..starving HUMANS)

A PEST IS A PEST IS A PEST!

Also there are such things as hunting seasons and there is a coyote season. Dave was in the right so until you have somthing relevent to add to the conversation calm down.
tom2024 4 years ago
"And you pity ME?!"
Yes. The more you reveal about your lack of understanding or even willingness to understand the world around you, the more you reveal your bigotry, hatred and lack of tolerance, yes the more I pity you.
The world is full of unhappy people just like you though. Unfortunately, there is nothing I can do to help you.
Hopefully, you'll eventually find some self esteem and inner peace. With that will come understanding, and tolerance for that which you can't understand.
DaveAffleck 4 years ago
Iowa do you have any idea what your talking about, it's not a dog it's a fucking coyote and in many states there a huge problem for framers and ranchers, and are allowd to be hunted. maybe you should just go huge a tree or drive your hybrid off a cliff.
tom2024 4 years ago
The more you say, the less informed and clueless you sound. You have not absolutely no valid insight into my lifestyle. None. Your utter, complete ignorance and total lack of tolerance for anything outside your own belief system reveals far more than you realize.
You have been somewhat amusing, but really, at this point, I'm just starting to feel pity for you.
Keep going if you want, doesn't matter to me. But you ought to try and improve your self esteem in more constructive ways.
