Need some suggestions for reloading .22 Hornet.. powder, bullets, shells, porimers... Id like to keep the bullet at 45gr or more but im open to all suggestions.. THANKS!
You need to buy Lil'Gun powder. Works well for 40 and 45 gr. bullets. I use a case full on 40 grain V-Max's and a SMALL PISTOL Primer and a Lee Factory Crimp Die.Huskyhunter said:I dont know what your going to be hunting, but if its groundhogs then the 40 grain v-max over lil gun took lots of hogs from my hornet.
I took your advice, does having a full case of powder and thus having to compress it when seating the bulllet cause any problems?Andy1 said:You need to buy Lil'Gun powder.

Please re-read. Lil'Gun powder, 40 grain V-MAX, SMALL Pistol Primer and LFC die. I have given this info out to multiple people when handloading their hornet and have never had a complaint back
