221 fireball to 17 fireball
I have a bag of new 221 fireball remington brass on its way. I'm wondering if I have to neck turn and anneal after forming to 17 fireball? I have other brass to use but got this bag in an unexpected deal so trying to make the best out of it.

Just run it through the die and you should be good - do it all the time for 20VT and never annealed.

Going from 22 down to 17 in one step is alot, I would do it in 2. When you get one necked down to 17 load a bullet and measure what the neck dia is that will tell you if you need to turn or not.

necking 221 to 17 fb
Good advice above. I suspect that whether you need to neck turn depends on your 17FB chamber dimensions.
My 20VT chamber is .234", and I neck 221fb to 20vt and don't need to neck turn. |

I am assuming your 17 Fireball is not a bushing die, you could probably run them through your 20VT but its gonna bump the shoulders back more than necessary. If I remember correctly a 20VT is 1.6 to the shoulder and fireball is longer.

Use a Redding Redding 17 Mach 1V form die #1
Then straight into your 17 Fireball full length die For my rifle 20 VT there is no need to neck turn BUT I have to for the 17.
