.17 Rem Bullets?

[imhntn]

I have loaded the berger 25 gr match hp for my 17 Rem for many years and I was loading a batch today and realized I was almost out of bullets. I was going to order some and seems they are not making that one anymore and only the varmint bullet, which was not the best choice back when they made both. It didn't penetrate well and blew up on shoulders. Can anyone give me some advice on a good bullet for coyotes in .17 cal and 25 gr? My gun will not stabilize a heavier bullet so can't load 30's.

A lot of guys are using Horndy 25 HP when you can find them.

Looks like Black Hole is only making 30gr 17 cal bullets and Reeds shows out of stock. Watch the adds, every now and then I've seen Kinder golds and Remington for sale.

I see Hornady 17 cal 25 gr hollow points at gunshows, still buy occasionally for the right price.

I might have some 25 Bergers in my stash. I'll check.

Anyone using the 25 gr vmax? Looks like they are readily available.

Didn't find any in my pile.

Not a good coyote bullet and they are long for weight. Like a 30gr. You will probably need a 1/9" twist.
