Thread: 17 hornet

Has anyone seen these, just found it on the CZ usa site,

Both the 527 Varmint (heavy barrel) and 527 American (sporter weight) models will soon be available in the new .17 Hornet chambering.

The CZ 527 is a true micro length Mauser style action featuring controlled round feed, a detachable magazine, forged receiver, hammer forged barrel, integrated 16mm scope bases and the CZ single set trigger system, fully adjustable for creep, over-travel and weight.

From Hornady.com:
Based on the 22 Hornet cartridge case, the 17 Hornet propels the 20 gr V-MAX at 3,650 fps. Fueled with Superformance propellent, the 17 Hornet Superformance Varmint is economically priced, and delivers the trajectory of a traditional 55 gr 223 load, but is a pleasure to shoot with the felt recoil of a 22 WMR. The 17 Hornet – an economical, fun .17 caliber centerfire cartridge that puts the STING on varmints out to 300 yards!
• 3,650 fps muzzle velocity with a 20 gr. V-MAX bullet
• Same C.O.L. as the 22 Hornet – uses the existing action
• Trajectory comparable to a traditional 55 gr 223 Rem, but the felt recoil of a 22 WMR
• Less fouling, barrel wear, powder and pressure compared to the 17 Rem
• Lower cost and comparable quality to the 17 Fireball and 223 Rem”
