TRBushing size for 17 Rem
Hi, I am planning on rebarreling my 222 Rem to 17 Rem. I have good experience with Wilson hand dies and intend to go down that route. I am planning on using Rem brass (what else

)and the Hornady 25grs V Max bullet. Can anyone give me some suggestions for bushing sizes please?
Thanks TR

243winxb17 REMINGTON .190"-.198" Some where in the middle is my guess.

Only way to know is measure a loaded rounds, as i am sure you know. Then pick a bushing .002" smaller. Good luck.
