FOLKS,
I just got a 22K HORNET carbine barrel & was wondering if anyone loads for it? I don't if many folks still use the 22K with the 223 available was hoping someone can shed some light on it.
I bought a set of Redding Delux dies & a # 14 shell holder. Any help with loading " tricks " data -etc. is greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your time & help.

A friend of mine got a Hornet case stuck in his Calhoun. He scratched the chamber trying to get it out. He says he's done with the Hornet-- the case is just too thin and too susceptible to damage when resizing. Good luck, soup...

drop the ball to the bottom of the case so that the sizdeing goes seperate and you won't crush cases Bill

Li'l Gun and around 13.0 grains +/-, depending on bullet weight. Some guns do not handle light bullets with LG due to large velocity variations. If you encounter that move to a higher weight. Excellent cartridge, powder, and you'll like the results. Hodgdon has specific load data for the K-Hornet BTW. Hornady 45 gr Hornet bullets cruise 3200 fps from my #1, no problem at all... shooting in the 7's or a hair larger for 5 shots.
