.17 Remington Trajectory Calculator

The .17 Remington is one of the fastest commercial cartridges available, designed for long-range varmint shooting. With a 20-grain bullet at 4,250 fps and a 100-yard zero, expect about 1.2 inches of drop at 200 yards, 3.2 inches at 250 yards, and 6.3 inches at 300 yards. The extreme velocity delivers a laser-flat trajectory but can struggle in wind due to the light bullet weight.

Use the calculator to match your specific load. Click "Modify Calculation" to enter your bullet weight, muzzle velocity, and ballistic coefficient. The .17 Remington runs 20 to 25 grain bullets at velocities exceeding 4,000 fps. You can also factor in wind, shooting angle, and atmospheric conditions.
