Hey guys! Just thought I would share how I handload my 17HMR ammo (and other rimfires) for extreme consistency and ELR shooting. I also reload spent brass, but am not covering that in this video. Another video to come for reloading this winter. Just know, this is NOT cost effective at ALL. I do this because of the performance gains, not for saving money. It's a very time consuming and labor-intensive process, but well worth it!

 
damn dude. i thought it took me forever to load my precision centerfire ammo.

what kind of accuracy and chrono consistency do you get?
 
I have some friends who got way down the rabbit hole with shooting 22 LR to distances where it was crazy.

At some point, the finagled themselves some virgin primed cases and rolled their own.

I wonder if @Team17 has ever tried to score some virgin/primed cases in 17 HMR?

It would be cool to see some range video and some targets and MV stats where the reloads are compared to factory.
