17 Hornady Hornet ???
just saw Hornady is coming out with a standardized 17 Hornet commercially
my builder buddy & I did projects on seperate Contender barrels a while back... Mine is in 17 K hornet, his in 17 Ackley... neither of us shoots these much, as it's a pain to form, then fire form cases... I see Hornady already offers empty cases, & dies, but I can't find loading data, or more so, case dimensions, so I can see if the cartridge is closer to the Killborn or Ackley ( I have seen Ackley mentioned in print, but nothing directly from Hornady ) anyone seen any info on the cartridge ???

Contact Hornady, and ask for dimensions.
Or... contact SAAMI, to get the 'registered' dimensions.
