Working on a 17 Shrew, very short 221 case with about the same capacity as the 17x28 . My question is, do you think a CZ will feed such a short case? Thanks! Mark

is the shrew shorter than the 5.7? the 17 velociraptor uses a hornet magazine and feed well. if it were me i would make a plastic block for the back of a 221 fb magazine, block it to the length needed for the shrew. the follower should be pretty simple to modify, not sure about the spring though.

i would certainly try it before modifying it, make three cases and see if it will feed, if all else fails get a calhoon single shot follower.

just how short are you making the case? if you get it short enough you can use 9mm brass. LOL
