Hi guys, is this calibre available here and if so does anyone know where? Rifle and ammo

Yes. I know Nic Yale brings in ammo for the .17HMR

Will have a look at their site, I have dealt with th before with air rifles

Know my brother bought one recently for his laaitie. He indicated that ammo is available when I asked. I didn't press the matter, he's my elder brother. Good for both our blood pressures if I let him believe I think he is wise.

Ask G Force on this forum. He has one so he will be able to give detail on ammo availability.

I know that Safari & Outdoor also has ammo.

Just been looking at a lot of articles on the little bullet,
It by far kicks a .22lr's but and is better out further than the 22 win mag. Looks like a lovely little calibre

I have a Ruger in 17hmr and plenty ammo.Nic Yale brings in the Anchutz as well as ammo.There is a place in the Cape that also brings/brought in Rugers and ammo.The 17hmr is in my opinion a wonderfull caliber that outperforms the 22LR and 22 Magnum.

Looking at the ammo cost in the states, it is pretty close to the 22 magnum with regards to cost, around about 4-5 x the price of .22lr's.
