.17 GARIN

The undisputed, high velocity champ of the SureStrike System. Firing 17-30 gr. bullets at phenomenal velocities while using miniscule powder charges, this caliber offers devastating terminal shock effect. Couple that intense speed with minimal muzzle blast and virtually no recoil or loss of scope image and you’ve likely never had as big a blast with so little of one.
