CCI TNT Green ammunition in .17 HMR (part no. 951) loads a lightweight 16-grain lead-free hollow point built by Speer specifically for rapid fragmentation on varmints without the lead content of a traditional bullet. CCI Ammunition builds TNT Green around an alternative-metal core, giving shooters a non-lead option that still delivers the explosive terminal performance the .17 HMR is known for. The lighter-than-standard 16-grain weight drives extra velocity for an even flatter trajectory than the standard 17-grain loading. This rimfire ammunition is built for hunters who need or prefer a lead-free varmint option.
