Home Forums Reloading Varmint Rifles Has the time come for Lee to offer a 17 Hornet collet die?loving

Hello: small caliber enthusiest.

Loving the collet die where available thus far!

Would a Lee 17 Hornet collet die be a volume seller yet? If you would be interested in a 17 hornet collet die please make a inquiry with Lee to get this on there radar. I am thinking this would out sell there 17 Remington Collet die by a good margin.

If I am not mistaken all they would need to do is manufacture a slightly modified collet for there 22 Hornet Collet die & a slightly modified de-priming rod/mandril.

Last I checked with Lee. they were no longer offering custom services for cartridges shorter than 223 essentialy.

Suppose what I really need to do to is Have a extended 22 Hornet shell holder modified to work with their 17 Remington collet die. May as well do the same for a 223 extended shell holder to neck size the 17 fireball while I am at it.
