I have just bought a Marlin 1894 classic chambered in .218 Bee and have been advised this bullet is a good bullet for the Bee.

Would be interested in experince of this bullet ? Better still in the Bee ?

Fancy trying it on Rabbit and the odd fox also plinking.........

I have started loading this bullet in my K-Hornet.... I haven't done any extensive load work-ups yet, but it shows promise. I can shoot 2 to 2.5" groups at 100yds if I do my part. This is at about 2200fps using AA1680 powder and small pistol primers. I load a slower load using WW231 for about 1850fps. I cast this bullet out of straight linotype. It ought to be just about perfect for your Bee.....
