The 17 HMR has been around at least 20 years
And I haven't bought one for at least that long.  ;)

I have shot plenty of Hornady 22 mag ammo.  I don't think I have seen any 22 LR ammo of theirs.

Yep, I know it's been around. But that doesn't mean that the company that came out with it and named it actually manufacturers it.

It appears that Hornady doesn't make .22 LR ammo.
