New Rem. 17 Fireball
Has anyone seen one of these yet? I've been waiting for their release, and nobody I've checked with has one yet. I'm waiting for it to come out in the SPS varmint, but evidently they haven't been released?
Wonder if the problem is in the magazine feed. That's what I was told when I had to wait 8 mos. to get my Classic in .221 Fireball. You would think if that is the problem, it should have been cleared up with the .221 problems. I don't know....just wondering out loud, I guess....

I would venture to say the 17 Fireball is a necked down version of the old 221 Remington Fireball( which is a shortened version of the 222Rem)case, not the 223. The "new" 17 Rem Fireball is real simularto the wildcat 17 Mach IV. I could be wrong about this though, I havent seen much on the 17 fireball.
