The 17wsm ans hornet are very close in performance.

I have never looked and don't need to, but noticed you may have been comparing the Hornets. No problem.

I do reload the caliber, and it's not tricky at all. However, only got about 1/2 way through working up the loads when groundhogs started popping up in Ontario...so I shot them all with factory, 20gr ammo and they died just fine. I wouldn't have bothered, but I was getting 1/2-3/4 MOA accuracy on average with it..and groundhogs are big rodents...so good enough! I still have my last round of "refinement" loads to test, and with groundhogs well into their slumber now...it's time!
