Due to a person who shall remain nameless (a RFC member), that put me on the road (of financial ruin??) of 17HMR rifles, by finding me the Lithgow LA 101, I now have to maintain a 17HMR ammo inventory, as the herd of 17HMR rifles has grown to at least 6 rifles. As I live in NYS and the mere thought of ordering ammo on the net, is probably a serious violation, you have shoot the ammo that is locally available.
When I first got the Lithgow, being a huge CCI fan boy (still waiting for my t-shirt), I bought some CCI 17HMR TNT, 17gr ammo to start with, then proceeded to buy the LGS inventory out, after I started shooting. Then the supply dried up, I then shot the Remington and the Hornady brands, and either real or imagined differences appeared. They were dirtier, less consistent and a lot smokier and less accurate. Love the Lithgow !!!
I found the CCI 17 HMR TNT ammo at both Bass Pro Shop and Runnings, but was $4-$5 more per box. So I waited and had the CCI on order at the LGS. Welp, my order has arrived, I ordered 2000 rounds, they got 3000 rounds in, I ended up buying it all. Then immediately put another order in, it took about 2 months for this to come in, hopefully the new supply will arrive before I run out of this batch.
