.17 Rem Fireball Ammo Prices

Remington shortened the .17 Remington in 2007 to build a more efficient version that burned less powder and fouled a bit slower while keeping the screaming varmint velocity. It is a refined take on a specialist's round aimed at the prairie dog and small-varmint crowd who wanted the performance with fewer headaches. A smart evolution of a niche idea.

Loads run around 20 grain in the modest offerings that exist. A specialty varmint round priced accordingly in small boxes. The dedicated crowd who chose it stock up whenever supply appears because it never sits long.
