Need Reload help

[vanmedic]

I have a .17 Fireball , also have 700 20gr bullets 150rds brass and dies. What I am looking for is someone that will load the 150rds for me to exact specs and that I know that it will be right. I live in east texas between canton and tyler and would like to keep it in east texas area. I can pay for reloads or trade the dies and the other 550 bullets to have the job done. I just want to know it will be exact when I get them back. anyone know who can help out? Thanks Adam

I have never used handloads before so makes me a little nervous not knowing the process just know that the 17 fireball is critical to the grain. Thanks

I may be a little far, but your welcome to come to my place and I will load them with you.

Thank you so much sir , if I cant find someone somewhat local I may get back with you. They are hard to find the good Remington premier ammo and it is 30.00 per 20 so really would like to load these up if possible. Thank you sir. Adam

do you know what powder, grains, and seating depth your Fireball prefers or shoots best ?

if not you need to do load development 1st to find the most accurate pet load for your rifle

I've hand loaded for the 17 MkIV (fireball) and can provide you with tons of starting point data. you will need to shoot over a chrono and fine tune the load. The fireball is a blast to shoot

I'm in Tyler. I can help you if you have all your information and know exactly how you want them loaded

I do now know seating depth from what I am reading with the hornady 20gr v-max 16.3 grains of H4198 should be a good starting point but there again I am new to this

Just advice but it would be good to make sure that your gun likes the specific load you want loaded and the person loading has experience with loading small case sizes. Tiny differences make can make a big difference in small case sizes, crimp or no crimp, de-burring the flash hole on the inside of the case, seating to chamber length, weighing cases and bullets for uniformity, etc. It isn't always as straight forward as loading something like a 30/30 unless it is a really robust load that can stand these differences. You may have already thought of these things but I just thought I would try to help.

This is sounding a little difficult, I may be better off selling the 700 bullets/brass & dies and buying some factory loads.Thanks guy's last thing I want to do is make a mistake.

Think it did help, going to back off this idea and sell my bullets.dies and brass.Thanks Adam

Heck. Didn't mean to discourage you, Just be aware that expectations of consistency of accuracy should be held in check. Get them loaded but do a few then shoot them and see how it does in your gun. Make adjustments before loading all of the components.

Don't give up.

Lotsa guys have experience in small case sizes.
