Travis,

I use both factory and handloads in the .17 Hornet. The factory stuff is excellent, and during sales can often be purchased for so little that it's almost as cheap as handloads. But I probably reload 3/4 of my .17 Hornet ammo, and have had no difficulties cranking out 350-400 an hour on a turret press.

Ingwe, of course, complains that his "fat fingers" don't handle .17 bullets very well, but mine don't drop very many....
