22 hornet powder

[ozzie]

Which is a good powder to use please and what load?

[Graham2]

Hodgdon Li' Gun is what I use, 12.7 grains to be precise under a 35 grain V Max bullet. I get around 550 rounds per tub with spot on accuracy.

Also H110 and Vit N110.

vectan sp3 the hornets performs best with fast burning powders as it has a small case that holds little amounts of powder

Hodgdon Lilgun is the powder of choice, can't get any round here so I've started using Hodgdon H110 with decent results.

Henry kranks have lilgun in.Just bought 35 gr v mach bullet heads what would be the ideal load for them ?

[Graham2]

I use 12.7 grains of Lil Gun under 35 grain V Max bullets and get very good results.

Please note:

THE ABOVE LOAD MAY NOT BE SAFE IN YOUR RIFLE, OR ANYONE ELSES RIFLE! Shouty safety warning over.

My CZ 527 performs best with 12.2 gr. Lilgun, 40 gr. V-Max bullets. pops out at about 2,750 fps, plenty fast enough.

The trouble with buying from Kranks is that it is a 180 mile round trip for me or £25 charge for postage for powder and not possible to buy bullets by post.

[ozzie]

What load would you use for 45gr bullet heads?

[Eligus]

I've not tried 45gr but I would start out at 12 gr and work up, Lilgun has low chamber pressures so it's safe enough.

Hi Ozzie, go here www.hodgdon.com/basic-manual-inquiry.html and have a look, there are a few powders that you can use.

LilGun is what I use with very consistent results.
