What type of firearm, rifle or handgun? Reason I ask is that so far there has been more negative than positive with semiauto handguns chambered for either .17 variant. Not sure any of the name makers are producing them now. From what I've been told it's somewhat the same with semiauto rifles, lots of functioning issues.
Couple of friends have bolt action rifles chambered for the .17 HMR and have had good luck with short range jackrabbit/prairie dog hunting, the small critters drop dead right on the spot most of the time.
