17 REM FIREBALL
Why did Remington come out with a 17 rem Fireball and drop the 17 rem when the ballistics on the 17 rem are better than the 17 fireball. Is it just a way to sell more guns and ammo

I'm not real familiar with the Fireball...I've only sold one, but doesn't it have a much smaller case? It was my understanding that it used less powder and had a more efficient case design...thus causing less throat errosion. 0 -

I am not sure on the case design but here are the balistics
