17 Fireball brass

[huntschool]

I understand from a post on another thread that Nosler is making 17 Fireball brass....

Does anyone know who has it in stock ? I just went to Midway and they did not show it.

Thanks in advance......

This outfit makes it from 5.56 Nato. I have never bought their stuff but they have been in business for quite a while now and their customers seem to be happy with it. At least you got a supply of it from someone anyway.

Rusty do you need to neck turn the cases made from 223 brass?

They don't say anything about it. They do suggest annealing though. I have a .17 Hornet and a .17 Remington and just use factory brass.

Thanks I'm building a 17 fireball and can't find live ammo or brass locally so I'll try some of 223 conversions and see what happens.

You will need to turn brass made from 223, or even from 221. I just clean up the necks on the 221 brass.
