    17wsm brass

    I am looking off some fired brass to experiment with making .25ACP jacketed bullets. How rare is this stuff?

    Go to just about any public range it's everywhere. Still can't believe how that cartridge took off.

    I have one I don't shoot much. Would .22 WMR brass work as well?

    Yes I like the .25 for ***** and giggles. .22 wmr is .242" in diameter and .050" thick. Not possible to stretch out to .252" od. 17 wsr case die. .262" .100" thick. Easily drawn to .252" od. Can probably get two jacket soft nose jackets.
