Woohoo - promising 17 Rem Load
Really struggled with reloading this little gem of a round over the last 10 days.
Brass is expensive, bullet selection sucks, blah, blah, blah.
Found that this Rem 700 in 17 Remington caliber, MUST USE CCI 450 Small Rifle MAGNUM primers...regardless of powder.
Also, must get the FPS in the high 3600 range minimum, for the brass to expand and seal against the chamber.
But, at the range today, 3 shots, one hole....and of course...a 4th and fifth flier...opened the to 5/8" with a steady 8 mph wind in the heat of this afternoon.
Anybody else shoot or reload for the 17 Rem?
