17s and fur damage

[royinidaho]

Was at the barber shop with a talkative trapper and fur buyer.

Report: The greatest thing to happen lately is the new 17 cal offerings.

From the smallest for fox to the REM for yotes he says they have noticed a big reduction in damage.

From his talking I gathered that the popularity of the HMR etc increased the awareness of the 17 REM.

Also, I've noticed quite a few more 17 REMs on the racks than has been the norm.

FWIW
