Don't you think there's something wrong when a bullet thats 8grs heavier and going 1400fps faster than the HMR doesn't get the same penatration? The HMR bullet is flemsey at best compared to the Berger. If you read the posts on this site you have to realize that 90% of the shots taken here are frontal(as in chest area)or behind the shoulder. You will also hear of the "splash" wounds when that Berger hits solid bone. Are you sure you hit the same spot as always? I'm sure someone else will chime in here, but these are my observations. I hope you find the answer you'er looking for, because the 17 Rem beats the HMR hands down, no question. Good Luck
Tim
