How far can a 17 cal. shoot?

That all depends on which ,17 caliber. There are .177 caliber air rifles,. a couple of different .17 rimfires, and a few .17 caliber centerfire rifles. Assuming you mean the .17 HMR (fairly popular right now) the bullet can travel over a mile, but not accurately. For small game and varmint control, about 150-200 yards. The cartridge is accurate beyond that, but energy drops quickly, and so does the flight path of the bullet. I have seen these used for shooting metal plates at several hundred yards.
