Default New to 17 HeBee-Forming Question

I just got me a 17 HeBee thanks to Cajun Blake on here. I have sent 100 pcs of brass to Todd Kindler to form but I am a little impatient and would like to shoot sometime this week. I have 17 Ackley Bee Form Die and was wondering if it could be used to make 17 HeBee? Same parent case just a different shoulder and length of neck. Last night I ran one piece of brass up into the Ackley Form Die, then ran it through my 17 HeBee FL sizer. The case looks really weird but chambered just find in my rifle. The fireforming is pretty extensive for the 17 HeBee ie: shoulder moving forward and getting blown way out. I'm going to anneal the brass before fire forming and i'm starting with NEW w-w super headstamp. Anyone that could shed some light on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
