Walt, actually I have a .17 Remington FIREBALL, not a .17 Remington. It's based on the .22 Fireball case and is very similar to the older .17 Mach IV. I think it gives up a couple hundred fps to the bigger 17s like your 17/223, but uses a lot less powder. I went with the Fireball because the big cartridges have a reputation for being rough on barrels, not that I'll ever shoot enough to wear one out.
I could form my cases from .223, but it would be a lot of work and I'd probably give up some case capacity. Right now I have enough factory brass to last my lifetime, although it's nice to have that option in a pinch.
