.223 Fiocchi Brass

Sorry, can't help with loads for 30 gr bullets as I've never tried them. My 17/204 really likes H380 with the 25 gr Hornady HP. Start with 17 Rem loads and work up. Vic

Tipton Rod

Not sure how you would repair a .17 cal rod that broke in two pieces. Guess you might glom it up with epoxy and make a .30 cal rod out of it? :confused:
