While I'd love to play with the heel bullet in the LR I think the .22 WMR kit has lots more validity. I think I'd probably try that for my money. With those tools I think one could make or adapt the technique to the .17 HMR too using commercial .17 bullets.

It looks like great fun just to see if you can do it. Painting and coating those projectiles would be a huge advantage too. No gooey external lube to collect pocket lint, and it shoot so much cleaner. I passed on a deal for a super sweet 1903 Winchester .22 Auto due to the unavailability of the special ammo. It's basically a .22 WMR shortened to .22 LR specs. using a lead bullet. That kit could supply the ammo. Not very practically though. Ditto for the .22 Winchester Special.
