Years ago a member here, heckupdpc, sold a bunch of 17grn Vmax bullets. I got a plastic butter container full of them from him for my 17AH. I used them for 13 line ground squirrels and they did a nice job for me. I haven't seen 17 grn V max advertised anyplace since those.

Heck was from Colorado, but very close to the KS line. I believe he is in NM now.

Here in Uk these bullets cost £27 for 500 count. ($36 ish).
How does that compare with prices in USA.?
Anyone need any I will get shipping cost and send some over there.
These are believed to be pulled from HMR ammo but they don’t have any witness marks.
Think I’ve sent these over there in the past.
Cheers,Ken.

That would be exceptionally inexpensive here in Canada.
The last .17 cal bullets I saw locally, were $36.99 for 100.
That would be 21.9 pounds.

Am I reading you correctly, 21.9 lbs for a package of 500, 17 cal bullets ?
I just weighed some and came up with less that 3 lb.
