    .17 WSM Rimfire

    Ramset charges are colour coded according to their power level, Purples are the most powerful from memory, but its been 30 yrs since i have used them commercially.

    I used them to tighten bedford/isuzu truck suspension hangars to the chassis when altering chassis lengths.

    Purples had crimped case mouths.

    I have crimping dies here that i use to make blanks in any chambering, but nothing to 'de crimp' a case so it can be pulled apart safely.

    Still got charges at work, cant use em need some license(firearms not applicable) and not worth the money for the amount we used it.
    But it is very cool to nail a 4x2 straight into 12-14mm steel
    "Hunting and fishing" fucking over licenced firearms owners since ages ago.

    keeping in mind that longer than a 17hmr will require a short action
    prices of rifles will be more than the average rimfire,

    gotta say tho I like the idea. keep things moving forward

    it is my understanding that any rimfire smaller than .22 is not covered in the MSSA definition, if someone produces a semi with 30 round mags ill be in with a grin.
