Not sure I get what this will do for you that a 17 Rem. wont????? I understand the whole cheap available brass thing...but, cant you buy a lot of 17 Rem. brass for the cost of the reamer alone???
Been down the road with 17's. Best thing I can tell you is if you really have 17 on the brain go with the 17 Fireball. 17 rem, 17-223 are both potential barrel burners if you aren't careful.
