Nosler Varmegeddon Rifle Ammunition .17 Rem 20 gr FBHP 3550 fps 20/ct

Precision varmint hunting demands ammunition engineered for flat trajectories and explosive terminal performance on small game. This .17 Remington load pairs a 20-grain hollow point with a 3550 fps velocity to deliver the accuracy needed for distant shots. Whether you're working prairie dogs from Daly City outward or managing predators on your property, understanding California's firearm regulations matters—review California firearm laws before your next range session.

Velocity and Bullet Construction Details

The 20-grain FBHP (flat base hollow point) design expands reliably on impact while the 3550 fps muzzle velocity maintains a flat shooting arc across typical varmint distances. Nosler brass cases provide consistent pressure curves and reload capability for shooters managing their own ammunition. This velocity-to-weight ratio reduces wind drift and compensates for range estimation errors. Federal regulations on ammunition storage and transport remain constant, but California adds layers—similar to how PC §32100 exempt revolvers have specific handling requirements. Always verify local hunting season restrictions before deploying this load. Browse our gun store.

Frequently asked questions

Is the .17 Remington suitable for hunting beyond 200 yards?

Can I reload these Nosler brass cases?

Yes, Nosler brass is designed for reloading. Inspect cases for damage before repriming, and follow published load data for the .17 Remington. Brass durability typically lasts 4–6 reloads depending on pressure levels.
