Well, I'm working on a load with the 25gr. Berger bullets and after I get that one perfected, I have a box of 20gr.'s to load up and see how they group. The powder that the little .17 seems to like is H-335 and this is the same powder that my .17 Fireball liked as well. I'm "down" to either a 12.0 or a 12.5gr of powder for the 25gr. Berger. My final test will be to run both across a chronograph for speed while shooting at a target for grouping. Once I get that test done, I'll just load up the brass that I have.

I have no idea what you were talking about. Was the barrell copper fouled?

The post was originally a sarcastic one and directed at the seller who sold brass to me, who is a Cleveland Browns fan.

So, the sarcasm seemed to be perplexing so I changed it to actual reloading data.
