Hornady .17 Mach 2 Varmint Express Ammo FAQ:

Yes, this ammo is highly suitable for beginners due to its low recoil and flat trajectory, which make it easier for new shooters to maintain accuracy. Additionally, the mild report and manageable power level provide a more comfortable shooting experience, helping beginners build confidence and skill.

The trajectory of the .17 Hornady Mach 2 is very flat, especially out to 100 yards, which minimizes bullet drop and makes it easier to hit small targets at various distances. This characteristic is particularly advantageous when hunting small varmints, as it reduces the need for complex range adjustments and improves your likelihood of a clean hit.

Absolutely, this ammo is well-suited for plinking and target practice due to its accuracy and affordability. The flat trajectory and minimal recoil make it enjoyable and easy to shoot, allowing you to practice your marksmanship without the added cost or wear associated with larger calibers. However, its specialized design for varmint hunting means it's at its best when used for its intended purpose.

You can expect significant internal damage to small game when using this ammo. The V-Max bullet is designed to fragment rapidly upon impact, which creates a devastating wound channel. This leads to a quick, humane kill, minimizing suffering for the animal and reducing the chances of it escaping wounded.

The muzzle report of the .17 Hornady Mach 2 is relatively mild compared to larger calibers, but still sharp due to its high velocity. This moderate noise level is less likely to disturb nearby wildlife, making it advantageous for hunting. It’s advisable to use hearing protection, but the quieter report can be more comfortable for shooters sensitive to loud noises, especially in prolonged shooting sessions.
