What is the deal with that new high power 17 round that they got out now because some say they are like a 22 long rifle but also come in a short version.
[&:] ummm, the only new .17 cal cartridge I know of is remington's .17 Remington Fireball. Besdies that there's the .17 HMR and .17M2 which have been available for quite a while now (years).
