CZ's site says 6.34 American vs 7.5 for the varmint - might have lost 3-4oz with the 24-23" trim so mine might be closer to 7.25.

I am just checking to see if there was ever a consensus about the load data for 17HH from Hornady and Western powders about AA1680.

I'm not sure how Cooper is categorized, I'd consider it at least a semi custom and I'm sure spectacularly accurate.
