I am loading for the 17m4 and all the data I find recommends rem 7 1/2 BR's , they aren't available here. I do have fed 205's will they do, or should I order the rems and pay the extra hazmat charge, that means $32 for 1000, wich isn't bad if it will save on damages to my rig.
thanks

I have used CCI 400's with good success in my .17 Hebee. Federal 205M's have worked fine in the Mach IV. Try what you have and keep an eye on them.

Kinda funny how it works, but the only primers that I have ever ruptured/leaked were Rem 7 1/2's. 3 of them in all.

I've always had good luck with the Rem 7 1/2's in my .17 Rem.

When you run out and need more primers pay the extra and get the 7 1/2 Rem's I do. Art
