Thanks for the recommendation CAT... they had the parts I was looking for...

new 17 Fireball on my 60's era heavy barrel 17 Remington model 700... 17 Remington barrel was shot out, so I'm doing a new barrel as well, but it'll be nice to have the mag blocked to the correct length cartridges

finding reloading components has almost been as tough... I finally found cases... ( already had a big supply of bullets from FIL's shooting of 17 Remington, & my 17 K Hornet )... still waiting on the Hornady dies, with the sliding bullet alignment collar ( getting the lil 17 pills lined up right can be a challenge... these new Hornady dies are supposed to take care of that )...
