Not with the 17 Hornet, but my TC Contender rifle is chambered in 17 Remington Fireball. I've been really happy with the Fireball, it's deadly for woodchucks.
The 17 Hornady Hornet should perform close to the 17 Fireball, even though it has a lot less powder capacity. Both stand head and shoulders above the anemic and overrated 17 HMR.
