No, you cannot safely shoot 17 WSM (Winchester Super Magnum) out of rifles chambered for 17 HMR (Hornady Magnum Rimfire). The two cartridges have different case dimensions and pressure levels, and using the wrong cartridge can result in dangerous malfunctions. Always use the ammunition that matches your rifle's chamber specifications to ensure safety and proper function.
