Just sitting here dreaming up a perfect wildcat , it would be nice if someone could get a major brass company to make some quality brass in a 17AH rimless. Oh well I guess it is time to wake up ! Thanks, Mark

the hornet is a nice little round that is great in single shot rifles for it haveing a rim, with all the rim less rounds out there why do we need another one, take the MK4 and down load it, there is your rimm less 17AH

JD , I was thinking that the rimless would feed better in a repeater style action . It seems that the MK4 has some problems feeding in some actions mostly the Remington. I do not think anyone would ever make the brass anyway , but I never thought that they would ever make anytning like the 17rimfire, and now there making one . Just think if some made a minature AR15 for something in a 17 AH rimless , I think that would be a perfect fox rifle! Oh well it's just a thought. thanks, Mark.

Jim knows a guy with a 17 Heart for encore, a short MK4

there is not a good small action made for real small cases, good ideal but in a single shot it would be

Even though it's a bit shorter. The case rim is still right at the 0.0300 mark same as, or close to the 25ACP. This would let it be utilized in the Rimfire sized actions. Brass is right difficult to come by though, I'm still looking for some.

mark there is a very simular case to the 17 ah it is the 17-30 carbine. the case is rimless and stronget than the hornet. you can push a 25 gr bullit at 3700-3800 fps. wouldn't it be nice if ruger chambered the 77 hornet with this case?
