There have been several different .17 caliber rifles- rimfire and centerfire. Right now, I am guessing that you mean the two most common .17 rimfires- the ,17 Mach 2, and the .17 HMR. The Mach 2 is basically a .22 Long rifle necked down to .17. The 17 HMR (Hornady Magnum Rimfire) is a .22 Magnum necked down to .17. It has more energy than the .17M2. They two cartridges DO NOT interchange. Ammo is more common for the .17 HMR. No experience with the M2, but the HMR is incredibly accurate at 100 yards.

Can you shoot a 17HMR out of a 22Magnum rifle?
NO! This will damage your rifle. ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!This might also damage the shooter...A 17HMR's bullet is .172 diameter a .22 Mag is .224,and the difference in cases means theres gonna be some rupturing,damaging the gun and the shooter....DONT DO IT!!!!
You want to buy your first rifle Is the 22lr or 17HMR the best bet for hunting varmints and occasional target practice?
I think the .17HMR would be a better choice all around, I have both and the 17HMR is better by far. The .22 bullet travels about 900'-1300' FPS and the .17HMR travels at 2200'- 2500 FEET PER SECOND.
