.17 Rem Fireball Brass

[jagged77]

Hi all, looking for some help. Am about to purchase a R700 in 17 Fireball however I can't source any brass. It looks like everywhere is out of stock with no back order (UK and US) so I'm a little concerned about getting the rifle and not having any brass!

If anyone can shed any light for me as to why brass for this particular caliber is so scarce I would really appreciate it. Also if anyone can point me in a direction to source some that'd be much appreciated also.

What he said. I made some from 221 early on before 17 brass was available but wouldn't recommend this route.
