Hornady did. I don't know if it's still offered, but this was recent enough that you should be able to locate some without any problem.

True....about seven years ago.....

I think Remington is the sole producer after that.

I forgot to add that I recently saw some Hornady ammo in .17 Rem on one of the auction sites (either gunbroker.com or auctionarms.com). If I remember correctly, the opening bid was around $13 per box.

Do a search on these sites, and you may come up with the ammo you are looking for.

I don't own .17 Remington rifle personally, but some people here in Czech Rep. and Remington ammo is here (I belive due to f#@&^%@ EU taxes) for about $50 per box so interested if anybody else produce that.
Thank you all for answers.
