It was a 22 Hornet necked to 17. I bought a Cor Bon bullet maker gizmo and a bunch of tiny little lead cores and brass jackets and commenced to have the worst reloading experience of my life. The 17 caliber anything is the devil's tool. I had a fellow that was a 17 freak and asked me how it was going and I ended up selling him the whole kit and kaboodle cheap. Loading any 17 caliber plus making the tiny little bullets is insane.
Several years later I saw that an ammo maker had done the same thing of a 22 Hornet in 17 caliber. He can have it gladly.
