[Brad Y]

Hey guys, my mate who is on here and doesnt post much, has just ordered a 17 fireball. He chasing brass if anyone has a source of some.

Let me know if there is any about

[bushchook]

Think he'll have to buy loaded ammo for the time being .

[Brad Y]

fifty bucks for twenty, yeah we already sussed that out, but just in case someone is selling their rifle and has some brass they dont want.

Buy 221 brass and neck it down?
Messy, I know..

[bimbo]

$50 for 20 rounds OUCH!!!! So she's not for plinking at cans

All i can suggest is find a case to neck down as woob suggested

TrevorT has a brand spanking new 17 fireball and he necked down 221 brass for it.

Rifles been available for 6 months but no brass and factory loads at $2.50 per shot . Sounds like another stroke of marketing genius from Remington . No wonder they are going broke .

[trevort]

and if you want to make your own the 221 fb brass is rare as hens teeth in the states as its all going into 17fb factory ammo production. Still some on the shelves here

[Brad Y]

yeah it looks like the pain will have to be worn until the ammo price drops. Seems like the best way to aquire brass

Remington has just made a run of .17 and .221 Fireball component brass, it's now available from some of our stateside purveyors. Hang tight, some of it will get there before long. If you're needing some, try Sinclair's.
