MickinColoBody Length of the 17 Bumblebee?
Does anyone know the body length to the shoulder on the .17 Bumblebee? I’m upgrading some of my cartridge drawings and I don’t have that measurement.

Thanks again though.

Fat_AlbertFor the hell of it. LOAD FROM A DISK lits the body lenght of a 17 Bumblebee at 0.589". Probley 50 different reamers out there. Thats why they are called WILDCATS.

You’re right about that.
I didn’t think about checking LFAD for what I needed but that measurement wouldn’t have work with the other dimensions I already had. Looks like LFAD’s Bumblebee has a different shoulder angle than the one above.
It’s like the 22 K-Hornet, I have 4 different drawings for it.
