17-222 Load Data....
« on: November 20, 2006, 05:06:23 PM »
I have an older 17-222 barreled action that I am currently restocking.  I am interested in finding some load data, or at least starting loads for this round.  I have some wildcat experience but nothing dealing with .17 caliber.  Anybody have some suggestions.
