Can you shoot .17 HMR ammo in the new Win Super mag guns?

NO...that is not what is on the side of the barrel either...two totally different cartridges.

JimmyJack,

You know what they say about pictures...

This is a picture of the .17 WSM, .17 HMR and a .22 LR for comparison.

As you can see there is no way to shoot the smaller .17 HMR in the larger .17 WSM chamber. Even attempting to do this could lead to disastrous outcomes. Please exercise extreme caution when using either or both rifles by identifying which ammunition goes with which rifle.

Enjoy your sport!

Best.
